SNMP (service test, port 161)
Sends an snmp get request to the destination device for an SNMP read test
(SNMPR). It also sends an snmp set request to the device to test SNMP write
(SNMPW). This protocol is supported for the versions of v1, v2c, and, v3.
•
SSH (service test, port 22)
Checks whether SSH is enabled on the device. If the destination device
responds to SSH requests, this also tests whether CiscoWorks Server can
make SSH requests to that device. It does not verify the password in the
database.

privilege, device credential fetching fails and the fields of read/write community
strings of SNMP v1/v2c, read/write SNMPv3 credentials are set to default values.
