External SNMP can't connect to WAN

DavidMcLaughlin1

I have a rule to allow SNMP traffic from an external host to the WAN interface. All this traffic appears to be getting dropped however, is this rule correct?

    Hi David,

    Greetings.

    The configured Firewall Rule is incorrect, this rule will inform XG to route traffic from Any Interface on XG to WAN.

    To allow SNMP traffic from an external host to the WAN interface no Firewall Rule needs to be configured.

    When a Request is made from external host on WAN IP, this will be directly hitting the WAN interface which will not require any rule.

    If you can share few more details on this matter, it will help me investigate it further.

    Thanks
