==Creating a SNMP V1 Template== An SNMP V1 template is a set of rules for Elicit to follow to collect data points from an asset. Utilizing a web address, read community string, and an OID, Elicit will gather information using these instructions and populate data series for use in maps, LiveTiles, and/or graphs. You will need to gather the following information to create an SNMP V1 template: *Name of the SNMP V1 template you wish to create *IP address or URL for Elicit to communicate with *Specified read community string: default is public *Specific OID for the piece of information you are trying to gather *The regular expression to tell Elicit which data you are specifically looking for *An adjustment expression for the data being returned to the LiveDC platform *Specific invalid raw values that are typically returned, which can be excluded. Some sensors return a 0 when in error state. [[File:SNMP V1 Template.PNG]] ===Instructions=== <ol> <li>If you are already in the “Create SNMP V1 Template” window skip to step 3a.
