I currently have NPM on a system with multiple IPs (three total). In an effort to make things more secure and less chatty, I have begun the process of removing generic SNMP communities (public/private), creating a server specific community and also pointing the SNMP service on each monitored server to a specific IP address.
While this worked in my local office, sites outside of our office (everything is monitored from my main office) will not respond to the new IP when I try to change them in NPM, even though the IP is on the NPM server. This system has 3 IPs and I want to report to our 'server' IP instead of the 'user' IP which it is currently using.
I haven't been able to find a place where I can make this change so that SNMP sends and receives on this new IP address.
Is this possible to change or do I just need to point my servers at the original address?
