CREATING COMMUNITY STRINGS

Community strings add a level of security to a network. The default community string is
named "public" and has read/write access. For security, "public" should be replaced with
custom community strings such as ones created with read-only access (for general use),
and another with read/write access (for the administrator).

To create a new community string, go to the main configuration screen and press C.
Enter the name of the new community (up to 16 characters, no spaces) and press Enter.
Then type one of the following to assign the community string’s access rights:

R = read-only access

W = read/write access

Enter = abort

After entering R or W, press Enter. To finish, press Enter and reboot.
