this is what i have configure on my fortigate 401E with fortiOS 7.2.7

FGT401E-1 # config system snmp sysinfo

config system snmp sysinfo
set status enable
set description "fortigate"
set contact-info "dept"
set location "company"

config system snmp community
edit 2
set name "snmp"
config hosts
edit 1
set ip 172.16.XX.XX 255.255.255.255
next
end
next
end

after adding device to opmanager, i see this at the top of the screen

Credentials not configured : Add valid Credential to monitor the performance metrics of this device

Hello @yeowkm99 ,

Your snmp configuration seems right. Did you enable snmp access on the interface? 

[yeowkm99]

yes, snmp enabled on my lan interface

set ip 172.16.x.x 255.255.0.0
set allowaccess ping https ssh snmp

Hello @yeowkm99, 

Is your problem solved or not? Sorry for the confusion.

if not resolved, you can try a few more things. 

If you use a trusted host on your administrator accounts. You need to add the opmanager IP address to this list. 

Also, can you try with SNMPv3? Because your opmanager gives an error "credential not configured".  SNMPv3 supports configure with credentials.
