The Communities machine setting should be configured correctly. Configures a list of the communities defined to the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) service. SNMP is a protocol designed to give a user the capability to remotely manage a computer network, by polling and setting terminal values and monitoring network events. A valid community is a community recognized by the SNMP service, while a community is a group of hosts (servers, workstations, hubs, and routers) that are administered together by SNMP. The SNMP service is a managed network node that receives SNMP packets from the network. If you enable this setting, the SNMP agent only accepts requests from management systems within the communities it recognizes, and only SNMP Read operation is allowed for the community. If you disable or do not configure this setting, the SNMP service takes the Valid Communities configured on the local computer instead. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Network\SNMP\Communities (2) KEY: HKLM\Software\Policies\SNMP\Parameters\ValidCommunities
