What component must be configured for SNMP to function properly in CyberArk?

For the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to function properly in CyberArk, the configuration of the Remote Control Agent is essential. This component allows CyberArk to interact with network devices via SNMP, sending and receiving management and monitoring data. The Remote Control Agent acts as a bridge between CyberArk's features and the monitoring capabilities of SNMP, enabling the system to gather performance data and status information from network devices effectively.

This integration is critical for organizations that utilize SNMP for network monitoring and management, as it allows CyberArk to support a broader range of operational requirements by providing visibility into the security and performance of networked resources. Without configuring the Remote Control Agent, SNMP would not be able to relay the necessary information back to CyberArk, negating the benefits of using this protocol in a security context.
