Hi All
Please advise Where to get "community string" at "Enter Device Information" at installation stage of SolarWinds Real-Time BandWidth Monitor
Thanks
Joel
You might be in the wrong forum for this particular question, but the community refers to the SNMP community string that is configured on the device whose bandwidth you are trying to monitor. By default most devices will use public/private for read and read/write, respectively, but almost every organization changes it (as they should).
Hope that points you in the right direction.

Thank you, I tried these public, private but it did not work.
I would like to know in case we don't know WHERE I can get this Community string, under Router (which command) or under DNS server ( which field)
on Cisco it'd be show snmp community, but it varies by vendor. For your DNS servers if they're Windows you typically use WMI to monitor those in most cases.
For the routers, chances are these things were set by your network administrator and it'd be best to ask them since this is a Server Application Monitor forum and you're asking network questions.
