Masking Private Data - PrintFleet TASKalfa 2551ci User Manual

Masking private
data
• To remove a community string, select a previously entered
community string, and then click Remove.
Note Although it is possible to remove the public
community string, you should only do so if you
know that all of the devices you want to monitor
are accessible via custom community strings.
If you remove the public community string, a Fix
link will automatically appear below the list to allow
you to replace the public community string later if
necessary.
• To reorder the list of community strings, click to highlight a
community string, and then click either the Up or Down
button. Repeat as necessary. When the Printer DCA
encounters a device using a community string during the
network scan, it will attempt to use the first community
string listed, then the next, etc., until it is successful or it
runs out of community strings to attempt.
3. Click Save.
To replace the public community string in the Printer DCA:

subnet, etc.)
