Setting Community Strings

Community strings define access rights for reading and writing SNMP
data objects for a device.

The community strings (read and write) for an AsantéHub 1016-IQ are
manually set in the AsantéHub 1016-IQ via its console port.

In order to access the AsantéHub 1016-IQ with IntraSpection, the com-
munity strings must be set in IntraSpection to match those set in the
AsantéHub 1016-IQ.

Important:

It is recommended that you set the commu-

nity strings for an AsantéHub 1016-IQ in IntraSpection
before you attempt to perform any network management
functions.

This section describes how to set the community strings in IntraSpec-
tion to match those set in the AsantéHub 1016-IQ.
