5. In the Community Name field, enter the new community string. The
name can be from one to fifteen alphanumeric characters. Spaces are
allowed.
6. Use the Status option to either enable or disable the community
string. A disabled community string cannot be used to access the
switch. The default is enabled.
7. Use the Access Mode option to specify the access mode for the new
SNMP community string. If you specify Read Only, the community
string will only allow you to view the MIB objects on the switch. If you
specify Read/Write, the community string will allow you to both view
and change the SNMP MIB objects on the switch.
8. Use the Allow Any Station option to 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.
9. If you specified the community string as closed, enter the IP addresses
of up to eight management workstations in the Manager IP Address
fields. These are the management workstations that can use the
string.
10. If you want the switch to send traps, enter the IP addresses of up to
eight trap receivers in the Trap Receiver IP Address fields.
11. Click Apply.
The new community string is now available on the switch.
12. Repeat this procedure starting with step 3 to add more community
strings.
13. To permanently save your changes, use the Save Changes button in
the General tab. For directions, refer to Saving Your Parameter
Changes on page 577.
