LS service will then have local admin access.

The service account only needs to have local admin access on the machine.įYI: Domain admin accounts have the rights to make changes to your active directory, the service account for running LanSweeper should NOT have these rights.Ĭreate a local admin account on each machine, or, what we did in addition to that was to use GPO to add a specific AD group (you can call it Local_Admin or anything you'd like), then once that GPO "takes hold", add your LS service account to that group. No it does NOT need to be a domain admin. So that there was a separation, i'm sure we could lock it down a bit more etc. It still pretty much needs domain admin, we created a service account called ls.scanning Is there a way to limit the security permissions of the account? I'd like to have just the specific permissions needed. I'd prefer not to use an account that is domain administrator. In this case there should be infos like this (grapped from lansweeper device tester):ĭescription: HPE Comware Platform Software, Software Version 7.1.I want to create a service account for scanning desktops that is only used for that purpose. If I change the asset type to switch I can see the ports, clients, MAC, etc but at the top aren't any infos about the switch itself. I've entered the OID for the switches, have seperate IP Range scanning with "no SSH" and "save scanned IPs" and mapped the SNMPv3 credentials to the range. We have much switches from HP whom shown like linux or webservers. This is a Web API for getting Report Information out of Lansweeper with any Programming or Scripting language that is capable of Sending Get Request to an URL. What happens when you manually add the assett as a switch with IP and hit rescan assett button? When scanning an ip-range make sure the option "save pinged ips" is enabled.ītw: when you successfully can scan the switch with the device-tester then lansweeper should be able to do it as well. Which SNMP Version do you use? and do you use Public community or any other? You should get the OID with the SNMP Tester.Īlso make sure your switch allows SNMP Access or put your Lansweeper Server in the Allow list for Public Community, usually there would be log-events on the switch if the server is not allowed to scan the switch. Put the SNMP OID of the Switch in the Configuration/AssetMapping/ Page and set the type to Switch.
