Palo Alto EngineID - SNMPv3 Trap Setup

Some of you may have some trouble on finding the EngineID on a Palo Alto appliance when trying to setup SNMPv3 traps.

Here are the steps I took to find the EngineID of the Palo Alto 3020.

Step 1 - Enable SNMPv3 on the Palo Alto.

Here is a quick tutorial on how to do it

Step 2 - Download the the GetSNMP tool from here: http://www.snmpsoft.com/freetools/snmpget.html

- Save the "SnmpGet.exe: file on the "C:" drive

- Open the Command Prompt and make sure you are on the C:\

- Enter this command

c:\>SnmpGet.exe -r:10.4.5.6 -v:3 -sn:admin -ap:SHA -aw:solarwinds -pp:AES128  -pw:solarwinds -o:1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.1.0

-r:           = Palo Alto IP address

-sn:        = SNMP user name

-ap:        = Authentication Protocol

-aw:        = Authentication Password

-pp:        = Privacy Protocol

-pw:        = Privilege Password

-o:          = OID of the "Engine ID"

Once you press enter, you should get this result:

I hope this was informative.
