SNMP support is provided for up to eight Windows MTAs on the same Windows server. Upon

Installing Windows SNMP Support
For Windows, the SNMP Trap Service is usually not included during the initial operating system
installation. The SNMP Trap Service can be easily added at any time. To add or configure the
SNMP Trap Service, you must be logged in as a member of the Administrator group.
For example, to add the SNMP Trap Service to Windows Server 2003:
1 Click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
2 Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
3 Select Management and Monitoring Tools.
4 Click Details, then select Simple Network Management Protocol.
5 Follow the on-screen instructions to install the SNMP Trap Service.

Installing GroupWise Agent SNMP Support
The GroupWise Agent Installation program includes an option for installing SNMP support.
However, if the server where you installed the agents did not yet have SNMP set up, that installation
option was not available. Now that you have set up SNMP, you can install GroupWise agent SNMP
support.
At the Windows server where you want to install the GroupWise agent SNMP support:
1 Run at the root of the GroupWise 8 DVD or downloaded GroupWise 8 image, then
setup.exe
click Install Products > GroupWise Agents > Install GroupWise Agents.
or
Run from the agents subdirectory on the GroupWise 8 DVD or downloaded
install.exe
GroupWise 8 image, or in your software distribution directory if you have updated it with the
latest GroupWise software.
2 In the Installation Path dialog box, browse to and select the path where the agent software is
installed, then select Install and Configure SNMP for GroupWise Agents.
3 To shorten the install time, deselect Install GroupWise Agent Software.
