All access groups and views are predefined on the switch. There is no method
to modify or add groups or views to those that are pre-defined on the switch.

SNMPv3 Communities

SNMP commuities are supported by the switch to allow management
applications that use version 2c or version 1 to access the switch. The
communities are mapped to Group Access Levels that are used for version 2c
or version 1 support. For more information refer to "Group Access Levels" on
page 13-11. This mapping will happen automatically based on the communities
access privileges, but special mappings can be added with the snmpv3
community command.
