Cisco asa 5505 Not Responding to SNMP

Cisco asa5505 is configured with snmp however after installing NPM and doing a discovery was not able to locate the ASAs. I tried to add the node manually and that was not successful. This is my snmp script.

snmp-server location xxx

snmp-server contact admin

snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication linkup linkdown coldstart

somehow I can't get the it work. I even change the script to include the community string and ip address of the server still nothing.

Please help..

did you set the community and allow snmp "management" traffic in the ASA?

thanks for responding. I did not use any set commands, did not know that set snmp community string was needed if I did snmp-server community string. What command do you place to allow snmp management on the asas

snmp-server community string is what i ment... you didnt mention it earlier...

but you definately need to allow snmp traffic, you can do that over asdm under i think management traffic (its where you allow ssh as well)

you need to specifically allow the source to hit it.

i.e. -> snmp-server host inside 192.168.1.1 community public

(or something along those lines)
