frame size will be discarded.

5.16SNMP COMMUNITY NAMES SCREEN

The SNMP Community Names menu item allows the user to set Local/Remote Management community names. Community names act as passwords to Local/Remote Management and are agents of security access to the 6H122-08. Access to the 6H122-08 is controlled by enacting any of three different levels of security authorization (read-only, read-write, and super-user).

NOTE

If the 6C105 has been assigned community names, it is not necessary to assign community names to the individual modules installed in the chassis unless the user wishes to limit access to 6C105 chassis screens by assigning different community names to the module. When this is done access is limited to the screens specific to the module the terminal is attached to and the CHASSIS menu item of the Main Menu screen will not appear.

Super-User access gives the user full management privileges, allows existing passwords to be changed, as well as all modifiable MIB objects.
