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 Configuration screen. Using a password
with read-only or read-write access does not allow the viewing or editing of the SNMP
Community Names Configuration 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 the SAVE command 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 Configuration
screen is a password to its corresponding level of access to Local Management. The
community name assigned Super-User access is the only one that gives the user
complete access to Local Management.

NOTE: Exiting without saving causes a “NOT SAVED?” message to display at the top
left of the screen. Edits are lost if they are not saved before exiting.
