5.18.2 Communities Tab

Figure 5.73 Communities Options

The Communities tab provides a means of limiting access to SNMP managed devices to
those SNMP Managers with matching “community names”, as specified by RFC 1157.

5.18.2.1 Enable SNMP

Enabling Enable SNMP allows the device to respond to SNMP queries and to send Traps.
After enabling this option and rebooting the device, the SNMP Agent will automatically
start up. To disable this feature, remove the check mark from the check box.

5.18.2.2 Adding A Community

Tap on Add to add a new ‘community’.
