Display/Modify SNMPv1/v2c Communities

View or modify devices that have permission to access the Web card, identified by IP address or host-
name, read/write permission and community string. Choose IP Network Settings from the Main
Menu, then Management Protocol.
Up to 20 devices may be configured for access.
EXAMPLE
Codes for
editing
Each device is identified by:
• Entry Number - use the entry number (1-20) to edit or delete an entry
• IP address or Hostname - the address of the device with access (MultiLink server, Nform
server, Network Management System)
• Access (read/write) - read allows users to view but not change data; write allows full
permission for configuration, control and viewing
• Community string - the community string used by the IP host for this Entry Number
(case-sensitive, up to 32 characters)
To make changes:
Add a device (see example at right to enter all parameters in one line):
• Enter a to add an entry, then press Enter.
• Enter the IP address or hostname of the device to be added, then press
Enter.
• Enter 1 for read or 2 for write access for this device, then press Enter.
• Enter the community string, then press Enter.
Edit a device (see example at right to enter all parameters in one line):
• Enter e to edit an entry, then press Enter.
• Type the Entry Number, then press Enter.
• Enter the new IP address or hostname, then press Enter.
• Enter 1 for read or 2 for write access for this device, then press Enter.
• Enter the new community string, then press Enter.
Delete a device (see example at right to enter parameters in one line):
• Enter d, then press Enter. No confirmation message will appear.
• Type the Entry Number, then press Enter.
NOTE
Avoid the following setting—it permits access by any host and may pose a security risk:
• IP address = 0.0.0.0
• Access = write
• Community = public
