Access Control
This feature contains an address list for you to control the accessibility from wireless devices.
There are three types of modes: 1) “Open” mode will allow you to associate to other units/devices
to the public. 2) “Allow” mode will allow you to associate network access from devices in the
address list. 3) “Deny” mode will not allow you to associate network access from devices in the
address list.
SNMP
Option to enable or disable SNMP support.
The SNMP Read-only Community string is like a user id or password that allows access to a
router's or other device's statistics. InterMapper sends the community string along with all SNMP
requests. If the community string is correct, the device responds with the requested information. If
the community string is incorrect, the device simply discards the request and does not respond.
Factory default setting for the read-only community string is set to "public". It is standard practice to
change all the community strings so that outsiders cannot access/read information about the
internal network. (In addition, the administrator may also employ firewalls to block any SNMP traffic
to ports 161 and 162 on the internal network.)
