SNMP Community Table
Use this table to create an SNMP community string to define the relationship between the SNMP manager
and an agent. The community string acts like a password to permit access to the agent on the Switch. One or
more of the following characteristics can be associated with the community string:
• An Access List of IP addresses of SNMP managers that are permitted to use the community string to gain access to the
Switch's SNMP agent.
• Any MIB view that defines the subset of all MIB objects will be accessible to the SNMP community.
• Read/write or read-only level permission for the MIB objects accessible to the SNMP community.
To configure SNMP Community entries, click Administration > SNMP Manager > SNMP Community
Table

objects that a remote SNMP manager is allowed to access on the Switch. The view name
must exist in the SNMP View Table.
