Parameters
• community-string—Define the password that permits access to the SNMP
protocol. (Range: 1–20 characters).
• ip-address—Management station IP address. The default is all IP
addresses. This can be an IPv4 address, IPv6 or IPv6z address. See IPv6
Address Conventions .
• mask—Specifies the mask of the IPv4 address. This is not a network mask,
but rather a mask that defines which bits of the packet’s source address are
compared to the configured IP address. If unspecified, it defaults to
255.255.255.255. The command returns an error if the mask is specified
without an IPv4 address.
• prefix-length—Specifies the number of bits that comprise the IPv4
address prefix. If unspecified, it defaults to 32. The command returns an
error if the prefix-length is specified without an IPv4 address.
• group-name—This is the name of a group configured using snmp-server
group with v1 or v2 (no specific order of the two command configurations
is imposed on the user). The group defines the objects available to the
community. (Range: 1–30 characters)
• type router —Indicates whether the IP address is on the out-of-band or in-
band network.

User Guidelines
The group-name is used to restrict the access rights of a community string.
When a group-name is specified, the software:
• Generates an internal security-name.
• Maps the internal security-name for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 security
models to the group-name.
