Note
Allied Telesyn recommends that you select SNMP Community
Names carefully to ensure these names are known only to
authorized personnel.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter Security Name:
6. Enter the name of an SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c user.
This name must be unique. Enter a value of up to 32-
alphanumeric characters.
Note
Do not use a value configured with the User Name parameter in the
SNMPv3 User Table.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter Transport Tag:
7. Enter a name of up to 32-alphanumeric characters for the Transport
Tag.
The Transport Tag parameter is similar to the Notify Tag
parameter in the SNMPv3 Notify Table. Add the value you
configure for the Transport Tag parameter to the Tag List
parameter in the Target Address Table. In this way, the Transport
Tag parameter links an SNMPv3 Community Table entry with an
entry in the SNMPv3 Target Address Table. See SNMPv3 Target
Address Table on page 302.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter Storage type [V-volatile, N-NonVolatile]:
8. Select one of the following storage types for this table entry:
V - Volatile
Select this storage type if you do not want the ability to save an
entry in the SNMPv3 Community Table to the configuration file.
After making changes to an SNMPv3 Community Table entry with
a Volatile storage type, the S - Save Configuration Changes option
does not appear on the Main Menu.
N-NonVolatile
Select this storage type if you want the ability to save an entry in
the SNMPv3 Community Table to the configuration file. After
making changes to an SNMPv3 Community Table entry with a
NonVolatile storage type, the S - Save Configuration Changes
option appears on the Main Menu, allowing you to save your
changes.
