Configurable Data
SNMP Community Name - The Snmp Community Name, it identifies each SNMP community.
Community names in the SNMP community must be unique. A valid entry is a case-sensitive string
of up to 16 characters.
Client IP Address - Taken together, the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask denote a range of IP
addresses from which SNMP clients may use that community to access this device. If either (IP
Address or IP Mask) value is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from any IP address. Otherwise, every
client's IP address is ANDed with the mask, as is the Client IP Address, and, if the values are equal,
access is allowed. For example, if the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask parameters are
192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client whose IP address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255
(inclusive) will be allowed access. To allow access from only one station, use a Client IP Mask value
of 255.255.255.255, and use that machine's IP address for Client IP Address.
Client IP Mask - Taken together, the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask denote a range of IP
addresses from which SNMP clients may use that community to access this device. If either (IP
Address or IP Mask) value is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from any IP address. Otherwise, every
client's IP address is ANDed with the mask, as is the Client IP Address, and, if the values are equal,
access is allowed. For example, if the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask parameters are
192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client whose IP address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255
(inclusive) will be allowed access. To allow access from only one station, use a Client IP Mask value
of 255.255.255.255, and use that machine's IP address for Client IP Address.
