Chapter 4: SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c Community Strings
66 Section I: Basic Operations
6. Configure the following parameters:
Community Name
Enter the new community string. The name can be up to 32
alphanumeric characters. No spaces or special characters (such as /,
#, or &) are allowed.
Status
Enable or disable the community string. A disabled community string
cannot be used to access the switch. The default is enabled.
Access Mode
Specify the access mode for the SNMP community string. If you
specify Read Only, you can only use the community string to view the
MIB objects on the switch. If you specify Read/Write, you can use the
community string to both view and change the SNMP MIB objects.
Allow Any Station
Set the community string as opened or closed. If there is no check in
the box next to the option, the community string is closed; only those
workstations whose IP addresses are assigned to the community
string can use it. If there is a check in the box, the string is open,
meaning any SNMP management workstation can use it to access the
switch.
Manager IP Address 1 through Manager IP Address 8
Specify the IP addresses of management workstations. If you gave the
community string a closed status, you can use these fields to specify
the IP addresses of up to eight management workstations that can use
the community string to manage the switch. Entering manager IP
addresses for a community string with an open status has no affect on
the community string.
Trap Receiver IP Address 1 through Trap Receiver IP Address 8
Specify the IP addresses of trap receivers. If you want the switch to
send traps to trap receivers on your network, such as your
management workstation, you can use these fields to enter the IP
addresses of up to eight trap receivers.
7. Click Apply.
The new community string is now available on the switch.
8. Repeat this procedure starting with step 3 to add more community
strings.
9. To permanently save your changes, select the Save Config menu
option.
