|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| authentication mechanism to restrict the machines on the network |
| |
|
|
| that can request data to the SNMP agent. The name functions as a |
| |
|
|
| password and the request is assumed to be authentic if the sender |
| |
|
|
| knows the password. |
|
|
|
|
| The community name can be in any alphanumeric format. |

| |
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
| If you have enabled SNMP SET requests you can set a |
|
| |
| for permitted SETs |
| community name. |
|
|
|
|
| Setting a community name is similar to setting a password. Only |
|
|
|
|
| requests from the machines that identify themselves with this |
|
|
|
|
| community name will be accepted. |
|
|
|
|
| The community name can be in any alphanumeric format. |
