Community Pool
An SNMP community is a group of devices and management stations running SNMP. It helps define where
information is sent. The community name is used to identify the group. A SNMP device or agent may belong
to more than one community. It will not request information from management stations that do not belong to
one of its communities.
Click Modify to set up community pools.
