Community Name
(Modifiable)
Enter the user-defined name used to access chassis management. Any
community name assigned here acts as a password to Local
Management.
Access Policy
(Read-Only)
See the access given each community name. Possible selections are as
follows:
read-only This community name allows read-only access to the
6C105 MIB objects, and excludes access to
security-protected fields of read-write or super-user
authorization.
read-write This community name allows read and write access to
the 6C105 MIB objects, excluding security protected
fields for super-user access only.
super-user This community name permits read-write access to the
6C105 MIB objects and allows the user to change all
modifiable parameters including community names, IP
addresses, traps, and SNMP objects.
NOTE: Any community name assigned in the SNMP Community Names Configuration
screen is a password to its corresponding level of access to Local Management. The
community name assigned Super-User access is the only one that gives the user
complete access to Local Management.
All passwords assigned in the chassis SNMP Community Names Configuration screen
allow access to both the chassis Local Management screens, and the Local
Management screens of the interface modules that are installed in the chassis. To
configure the interface module to prevent access to the chassis Local Management
screens, refer to Section 5.4.
