Since the IRM2 is an SNMP compliant device, you can also set
community names for the devices attached to your IRM2. These
community names serve four purposes:
•
They provide a security. The IRM2 authenticates any SNMP request,
and only responds to those requests that have a community name
contained in the IRM2 community name table.
•
They allow you to set which network management workstations
receive traps from the IRM2.
•
They allow you to control Read, Read/Write, and Superuser access to
your device.
•
They allow you to set Local Management passwords.
