Configurable Data
Object Description
• SNMP Community
Name
You can use this screen to reconfigure an existing community, or to create a new
one. Use this pull-down menu to select one of the existing community names, or
select 'Create' to add a new one. A valid entry is a case-sensitive string of up to
16 characters.
• Client IP Address Taken together, the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask denote a range of IP
addresses from which SNMP clients may use that community to access this
device. If either (IP Address or IP Mask) value is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from
any IP address. Otherwise, every client's IP address is ANDed with the mask, as
is the Client IP Address, and, if the values are equal, access is allowed.
For example, if the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask parameters are
192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client whose IP address is 192.168.1.0
through 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) will be allowed access.
To allow access from only one station, use a Client IP Mask value of
255.255.255.255, and use that machine's IP address for Client IP Address.
• Client IP Mask Taken together, the Client IP Address and Client IP Mask denote a range of IP

To allow access from only one station, use a Client IP Mask value of
255.255.255.255, and use that machine's IP address for Client IP Address.
