Configuring Simple Network Management Protocol support

NOTE: SNMP support is enabled by default.

1.Use the following command to enable SNMP:

>># /cfg/sys/access/snmp disableread onlyread/write

2.Set SNMP read or write community string. By default, they are public and private respectively:

>># /cfg/sys/ssnmp/rcommwcomm

3.When prompted, enter the proper community string.

4.Apply and save configuration if you are not configuring the switch with Telnet support. Otherwise apply and save after the performing the “Optional Setup for Telnet Support” steps.
