Parameter Action/Description
Community String Enter the Community String value, then reenter the string to verify it.
Force Read Enable the Force Read check box to ensure that all W-ClearPass nodes in the
cluster will read the SNMP information from this device, regardless of the trap
configuration on the device.
NOTE: This option is especially useful when demonstrating static IP-based device
profiling because the Force Read option does not require any trap configuration
on the network device.
Read ARP Table Info If this is a Layer-3 device, and you want to use the ARP table on this device as a
way to discover endpoints in the network, enable the Read ARP Table Info check
box.
NOTE: Static IP endpoints discovered in this way are further probed via SNMP to
profile the device.
