This page steps you through enabling SNMP on your Macs so that they can be monitored by PeakHour.

We've made this process super-easy by creating **PeakHour Enabler**, an *optional* helper app that automatically enables and configures SNMP on a Mac so that PeakHour can monitor it.

> ℹ️ If you'd prefer to set up and enable SNMP yourself, or you're curious what PeakHour Enabler does, see our [blog post](http://blog.peakhourapp.com/post/52906196841/monitor-bandwidth-usage-for-individual-macs-with) for detailed instructions.

> ⚠️ If you purchased PeakHour direct (via Paddle), the steps are slightly different. Use [this guide](https://peakhoursupport.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/P4D/pages/655603) instead.

Here's how use you PeakHour Enabler to set up SNMP:
