SET SNMP COMMUNITY

Syntax

set snmp community=”community access=read|write

Parameter

community

Specifies the community string whose access level is

to be changed. Community strings are case sensitive.
The string must be enclosed in double quotes if it
contains a space or special character, such as an
exclamation point; otherwise, the quotes are optional.

access

Specifies the new access level for the community

string. Options are Read and Write.

Description

This command changes the access level of an existing community string
on the switch. For example, you can use the command to change a
community string with the Read access level to the Write level. To view
the community strings on the switch and their access levels, refer to the
SHOW SNMP command.

The switch can support only one community string with the Read access
level and one with the Write level at one time. Consequently, in order for
you to change a community string’s access level, there cannot be on the
switch an existing string that was already assigned that level. For
instance, to change a community string from the Read to the Write level,
you must first delete from the switch the community string that already
has been assigned the Write level. To delete community strings, refer to
the DESTROY SNMP COMMUNITY command.

Example

The following command changes the access level for the “serv12”
community string to Read:

set snmp community=serv12 access=read
