Citrix Systems CITRIX NETSCALER 9.3 manual Specifying an SNMP Community, w sh snmp community

Chapter 2 SNMP

Specifying an SNMP Community

You can create strings called community strings and associate them with the following SNMP query types on the NetScaler:

wGET

wGET NEXT

wALL

wGET BULK

You can associate one or more community strings to each query types. For example, when you associate two community strings, such as abc and bcd, to the query type GET NEXT, the SNMP agent on the NetScaler appliance considers only those GET NEXT SNMP query packets that contain abc or bcd as the community string.

If you don't associate any community string to a query type then the SNMP agent responds to all SNMP queries of that type.

To specify an SNMP community by using the NetScaler command line

At the NetScaler command prompt, type the following commands to set the parameters and verify the configuration:

wadd snmp community <communityName> <permissions>

wsh snmp community

Example

>add snmp community com all Done

>show snmp community com Community: com Permissions: ALL Done

Parameters for configuring an SNMP community string

communityName

SNMP community string.

permissions

Access privileges. Possible values: GET, GET NEXT, GET BULK, ALL.

To configure an SNMP community string by using the configuration utility

1. In the navigation pane, expand System, expand SNMP, and then click Community.
