IBM 4986B LanProbe 1 Private MIB Access Security Privileges, Default, Community, Permissions

Introduction

LanProbe Overview

The LanProbe private MIB uses a four-level access control scheme. An access level is assigned for each community string to be used with LanProbe. The access level is an integer value between one and four, with increasing degrees of authorization granted for higher authorization numbers. Each higher level is granted the rights of all lower levels in addition to the specific privileges of that level. Table 1-1 shows specific access privileges by level.
