GW_checkbox_4428097906333.png	SNMPv3 enabled
	The small Gateway configuration can monitor up to 60 SNMPv3 devices total. System requirements EcoStruxure IT Gateway versions older than 1.15 do not allow discovery of SNMPv3 devices with the Authentication type or Encryption type set to None. Note: When AES is configured on the APC NMC, choose AES128 in the Gateway.

	SSL certificate If your organization operates an SSL inspection proxy and EcoStruxure IT Gateway does not trust the issuing CA, add the certificate authority's (CA) root certificate to the EcoStruxure IT Gateway trust store. Your IT department can provide the correct root certificate. The certificate must be in PEM format with one of the following extensions: cer, crt, or pem.
