rio666uk Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Are any of you guys out there looking after a LAN... if so how often are you SNMP polling your network nodes? Ive been led to believe that statistic polling more often than every 5mins can have a detrimental effect on the network... anyone have any opinions on this? thanks 666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remembering back to my HP Openview days, a poll interval of about 5 mins was suggested. SNMP packets are pretty small so its a negligible effect on an ethernet LAN, can be more of a consideration over WAN links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
