This section describes how to configure the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 1 and SNMP version 2 information on the switch. For information about configuring the SNMPv3 administrative profile, see Use SNMPv3 on page 21.

To add an SNMP community:

2.Next to Management Station IP, specify the IP address of the management station.
3.Next to Management Station IP Mask, specify the subnet mask to associate with the management station IP address.

Otherwise, every client’s address is ANDed with the mask, as is the Management Station IP Address; and, if the values are equal, access is allowed. For example, if the Management Station IP and Management Station IP Mask parameters are 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client whose address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) will be allowed access.
