	access to the 6H122-08 MIB objects, excluding
	security protected fields for super-user access
	only.
super-user	This community name permits read-write

5.16.1 Establishing Community Names

The password used to access Local Management at the Password Screen must have Super-User access in order to view and edit the SNMP Community Names screen. Using a password with read-only or read-write access does not allow the user to view or edit the SNMP Community Names screen.

NOTE

Any community name assigned in the SNMP Community Names screen is a password to its corresponding level of access to Local/Remote Management. The community name assigned Super-User access is the only one that gives the user complete access to Local/Remote Management.

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 SAVE 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

Exiting without saving causes a “NOT SAVED?” message to display above the SAVE command. Edits will be lost if they are not saved before exiting.
