Configuring a Windows device to send SNMP trap messages to the KUMA collector involves the following steps:

1. Configuring and starting the SNMP and SNMP trap services
2. Configuring the Event to Trap Translator service

Events from the source of SNMP trap messages must be received by the KUMA collector, which uses a connector of the snmp-trap type and a json normalizer.

To configure and start the SNMP and SNMP trap services in Windows 10:

1. Open Settings → Apps → Apps and features → Optional features → Add feature → Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and click Install.
2. Wait for the installation to complete and restart your computer.
3. Make sure that the SNMP service is running. If any of the following services are not running, enable them:
   • Services → SNMP Service.
   • Services → SNMP Trap.
4. Right-click Services → SNMP Service, and in the context menu select Properties. Specify the following settings:
   • On the Log On tab, select the Local System account check box.
   • On the Agent tab, fill in the Contact (for example, specify User-win10) and Location (for example, specify detroit) fields.
   • On the Traps tab:
     • In the Community Name field, enter community public and click Add to list.
     • In the Trap destination field, click Add, specify the IP address or host of the KUMA server on which the collector that waits for SNMP events is deployed, and click Add.
   • On the Security tab:
     • Select the Send authentication trap check box.
     • In the Accepted community names table, click Add, enter Community Name public and specify READ WRITE as the Community rights.
     • Select the Accept SNMP packets from any hosts check box.
5. Click Apply and confirm your selection.
6. Right click Services → SNMP Service and select Restart.

   • On the Agent tab, fill in the Contact (for example, specify User-win10) and Location (for example, specify detroit) fields.
   • On the Traps tab:
     • In the Community Name field, enter community public and click Add to list.
     • In the Trap destination field, click Add, specify the IP address or host of the KUMA server on which the collector that waits for SNMP events is deployed, and click Add.
   • On the Security tab:
     • Select the Send authentication trap check box.
     • In the Accepted community names table, click Add, enter Community Name public and specify READ WRITE as the Community rights.
