Configuring SNMP 141
The c omm-string can be up to 32 alphanumeric characters long, with no
spaces. You can configure up to 10 community strings.
The access level specifies the read-write privileges of the community
string:
„
read-only —An SNMP management application using the string can
get (read) object values on the switch but cannot set (write) them. This
is the default.
„
read-notify —An SNMP management application using the string can
get object values on the switch but cannot set them. The switch can
use the string to send notifications.
„
notify-only —The switch can use the string to send notifications.
„
read-write —An SNMP management application using the string can
get and set object values on the switch.
„
notify-read-write —An SNMP management application using the
string can get and set object values on the switch. The switch can use
the string to send notifications.
