5.8.1

Establishing Community Names

The password used to access Local Management at the Password Screen
must have super-user access to view and edit the SNMP Community
Names screen. Using a password with read-only or read-write access does
not allow the user to view or edit the SNMP Community Names screen.

To establish community names, proceed as follows:

1.

Use the arrow keys to highlight the Community Name field adjacent
to the selected access level.

2.

Enter the password in the field (maximum 31 characters).

3.

Press ENTER.

4.

Repeat steps 1 through 3 to modify the other community names.

5.

Use the arrow keys to highlight SAVE at the bottom of the screen and
press ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” displays. The community
names are saved to memory and their access modes implemented.

NOTE

Any community name assigned in the SNMP Community
Names screen is a password to its corresponding level of
access to Local/Remote Management. The community name
assigned super-user access is the only one that gives the user
complete access to Local/Remote Management.

NOTE

Exiting without saving causes a “NOT SAVED?” message to
display above the SAVE command. Edits will be lost if they are
not saved before exiting.
