Default Community Strings

The following is a list of the default community strings used by the SmartSwitch 6500:

•

public — Used for all standard SNMP communication

•

ILMI — Used by ILMI channels between switches

•

zeitnet — Used by the SmartSwitch ATM Administrator program

Caution

If the community string zeitnet is changed on the SmartSwitch 6500 it must also
be changed at the SmartSwitch ATM Administrator. Failure to do so, makes the
SmartSwitch 6500 unreachable by the SmartSwitch ATM Administrator
program.
