What do you have configured on your device under SNMP settings?

Sorry for being so ignorant, but where would I find SNMP settings?

All it shows under "Serbices" is SNMP Trap

What type of device do you need to find the settings for?

In order to run the app " Network Configuration Manager it wants the "Target Device" ie. IP address (which I know that) and "Community String"

What type of device is the target device? (Cisco firewall, Dell switch, etc)

Dell WLAN wireless N mini-half card

Can you telnet or ssh into this device, and get to a CLI?

The default community string is public.

But it's normally the device that has the community string configured on it, not the wireless lan card.
