switch by using the command-line interface (CLI). If you enable Telnet access, you
must enter a Telnet password.
• In the Telnet Password field, enter a password. The Telnet password can be from 1 to

allow spaces at the beginning or end. In the Confirm Telnet Password field, re-enter
the Telnet password.

strings authenticate access to MIB objects. Embedded spaces are not allowed in SNMP
community strings. When you set the SNMP read community, you can access SNMP
information, but you cannot modify it. When you set the SNMP write community,
you can both access and modify SNMP information.
