Controlling SNMP Access

There are three methods for limiting SNMP access.

H

Disable the SNMP management option.

H

Assign SNMP community names and access levels. The DSU/CSU supports
SNMP Version 1, which provides limited security through the use of
community names.

H

Limit SNMP access through validation of the IP address of each allowed
SNMP manager.

Assigning SNMP Community Names and Access Levels

The DSU/CSU can be managed by an SNMP manager supporting the SNMP
protocol. The community name must be supplied by an external SNMP manager
accessing an object in the MIB.

To define SNMP community names, follow this menu selection sequence:
