Establishing Community Names

The password used to access Local Management on the Password Screen
must have super-user access to view and edit the SNMP Community
Names screen. Using a password with read-only or read-write access does
not allow a user to view or edit the SNMP Community Names screen.
Any community name assigned in the SNMP Community
NOTE
Names screen is a password to its corresponding level of
access to Local Management. The community name assigned
super-user access is the only one that gives the user complete
access to Local Management.
