SNMP Manager Setting

The fields under this setting are used to configure the DES-5024 for SNMP Management. You must configure these fields in order to manage the DES-5024 through SNMP.

SNMP Community String

The SNMP Community String field allows you to name the SNMP Communities. The names public and private are only default names. For security you should change these names to help prevent unauthorized access to the DES-5024.

You can name the SNMP communities anything you like. You can enter up to 32 characters in each of the four fields. You can create up to four SNMP Communities.

Access Right

Enables you to set the rights that members of the SNMP Communities have. Read Only access rights mean that members of the community can view the information on the DES- 5024 but they can not make changes to the configurations. Read/ Write access rights allow the members of the community to make any changes they desire.
