It&#8217;s pretty simple.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">SNMP configuration for IP cameras<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">To get the SNMP up and running, you need to download the software of your choice, install it on the server, and enable the protocol on your IP camera.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">You can change the default community (password) on the camera and server to prevent other people from gathering information from your devices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">Let&#8217;s take a look at how to do that with a real configuration example.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">Enable the SNMP protocol in the IP camera<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">Alright. This step is very simple and depends on the camera you have.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">Look for the SNMP menu, enabled it and change the community (if you want to).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; cursor: text;\">For this example on a <strong>Axis P1365 MK II<\/strong> camera &nbsp;(using firmware 9.8.x.x) the SNMP menu is under the System tab.
