Simple Network Management Protocol

Setting Community Access Strings

You may configure up to five community strings authorized for management access. All community strings used for IP Trap Managers should be listed in this table. For security reasons, you should consider removing the default strings.

Command Attributes

•SNMP Community Capability – Indicates that the switch supports up to five community strings.

•Community String – A community string that acts like a password and permits access to the SNMP protocol.

Default strings: “public” (read-only access), “private” (read/write access)

Range: 1-32 characters, case sensitive

•Access Mode

-Read-Only– Specifies read-only access. Authorized management stations are only able to retrieve MIB objects.

-Read/Write – Specifies read-write access. Authorized management stations are able to both retrieve and modify MIB objects.

Web – Click SNMP, Configuration. Add new community strings as required, select the access rights from the Access Mode drop-down list, then click Add.

CLI – The following example adds the string “spiderman” with read/write access.

Console(config)#snmp-server community spiderman rw
