Displaying the SNMP community string

If you want to display the SNMP community string, enter the following commands.

The enable password-display command enables display of the community string, but only in the
output of the show snmp server command. The string is still encrypted in the startup-config and
running-config files. Enter the command at the global CONFIG level of the CLI.

Disabling password encryption

When you configure a password, then save the configuration to the Brocade Virtual ADX file system,
the password is also saved as part of the configuration file. By default, the passwords are
encrypted so that the passwords cannot be observed by another user who displays the
configuration file. Even if someone observes the file while it is being transmitted over TFTP, the
password is encrypted.

If you want to remove the password encryption, you can disable encryption by entering the following
command.

Virtual ADX(config)#no service password-encryption

Syntax: [no] service password-encryption

Virtual ADX(config)#enable password-display

Virtual ADX(config)#show snmp server
