SNMP v1/v2c community definitions allow read-only or read/write access to Mobility 7131
Access Point management information. The SNMP community includes users whose IP
addresses are specified on the SNMP Access Control screen.
A read-only community string allows a remote device to retrieve information, while a
read/write community string allows a remote device to modify settings. Brocade Mobility
recommends considering adding a community definition using a site-appropriate name
and access level. Set up a read/write definition (at a minimum) to facilitate full access by
the Mobility 7131 Access Point administrator.
2. Configure the SNMP v1/v2 Configuration field (if SNMP v1/v2 is used) to add or delete
community definitions, name the community, specify the OID and define community access.
3. Configure the SNMP v3 User Definitions field (if SNMP v3 is used) to add and configure SNMP
v3 user definitions.
Add Click Add to create a new SNMP v1/v2c community definition.
Delete Select Delete to remove a SNMP v1/v2c community definition.
Community Use the Community field to specify a site-appropriate name for the community. The name
is required to match the name used within the remote network management software.
OID Use the OID (Object Identifier) pull-down list to specify a setting of All or a enter a Custom
OID. Select All to assign the user access to all OIDs in the MIB. The OID field uses numbers
expressed in dot notation.
Access Use the Access pull-down list to specify read-only (R) access or read/write (RW) access
for the community. Read-only access allows a remote device to retrieve access point
information, while read/write access allows a remote device to modify access point
settings.
