# Enabling Weak SNMP Discovery

The Weak SNMP Policy finds predefined SNMP v1/2 string information from client devices.

To define a weak SNMP policy go to Rules & Policies -> Policy Management --> Policy Rules and click the "+Policy" button.

On the policy definition screen, set values for the policy you are defining, Name, Description, Severity, and Enable status.

The important part of this policy is the "Community Name" part. System search for these SNMP strings on client devices.
