System > SNMP > Community
A community string has attributes for controlling who can use the string and what the
string will allow a network management station to do on the switch. The Web
Management Utility does not provide any default community strings. You must first
define an SNMP User and Group Name on the SNMP User/Group page and then define a
Community Name on the SNMP Community Table page.
1. Log into your switch management page (see
on page 5).
2. Click on System, click on SNMP, and click on Community.
3. Review the settings.
Create SNMP Community Settings

Enter a new Community Name. A name can be up to 32 characters in length.

Enter a User Name(View Policy) that has been previously defined. This name
must match one of the User Names displayed on the
Note: SNMP User/Group page. If you enter a user name that has not been pre-
defined on the SNMP User/Group page, the Community entry is displayed, but
the agent/manager communication fails.

Click Add. The values of the new Community Name and User Name are
displayed.
