Hello,

This normally occurs if ipMonitor cannot communicate with the remote device using SNMP or WMI.

-To test SNMP, use the steps in the following article:

-To test WMI, use the steps in the following article:

Hope this helps.

Need to force the Monitor to use NTLM Authentication instead of impersonation.

To do that, you simply create a new Credential and only select “may be used for NTLM authentication”. The problem is you can’t do that in ipMonitor 9 so use option 2 if you can't upgrade:

1. Upgrade to ipMonitor 10 and do the above trick

2. Modify Local Policies to allow account assigned to ipMonitorSrv service the ability to impersonate properly. The account needs to be added to the following policies:

Act as part of the operating system
Bypass traverse checking
Log on as a Service
Replace a process level token
