I have never done anything with SNMP and the controller. Are you using at any documentation for how it’s configured?

I got the same issue. It's not possible for me to get a connection running with snmp through the docker container. I tried the net=host mode and the manually port mapping. 161/udp

It looks like its not even listening in the container.

Even tho, its enabled in the webinterface:

The monitoring system and the controller are in the same subnet.

[mbentley]

Turning on SNMP enables SNMP on the network devices (switches, APs, routers, etc), not the controller itself.

[TrueMB]

Ahhh, i thought the controller got snmp as well, for an overview.

That explains a lot and helped me.
Thank you very much!

Happy to help - I didn't know that myself until this morning when I did some testing and digging myself where I found a forum post from a TP-Link employee who mentioned what the feature actually did.
