Entering the password for SNMP access

 Select the Security:Password/SNMP Access dialog.
This dialog gives you the option of changing the read and read/write
passwords for access to the device via the graphical user interface, via
the CLI, and via SNMPv3 (SNMP version 3).
Set different passwords for the read password and the read/write
password so that a user that only has read access (user name "user")
does not know, or cannot guess, the password for read/write access
(user name "admin").
If you set identical passwords, when you attempt to write this data the
device reports a general error.
The graphical user interface and the command line interface (CLI) use
the same passwords as SNMPv3 for the users "admin" and "user".
Note: Passwords are case-sensitive.
 Select "Modify Read-Only Password (User)" to enter the read
password.
 Enter the new read password in the "New Password" line and repeat
your entry in the "Please retype" line.
 Select "Modify Read-Write Password (Admin)" to enter the
read/write password.
 Enter the read/write password and repeat your entry.
