Creating a
Community Table
Use the Community Table to define:
■
SNMP stations on the network that access information from the EME
■
SNMP stations that receive traps from the EME
To enable the EME to receive SNMP alarms, you must add the following
items to the community table of the SNMP device that generates the
alarms:
■
The EME IP address
■
Accompanying attributes
The EME Community Table can contain up to 10 IP community entries.
You may assign one of the following attributes to the IP addresses:
■
Read-only — Allows the specified IP address community to read
SNMP objects using the SNMP
get
and
get next
commands.
■
Read-write — Allows the specified IP address community to read and
write SNMP objects using the SNMP
get, get next,
and
set
commands, respectively.
■
Trap — Sends a trap to the specified IP address when an event occurs.
■
Read-trap — Allows the specified IP address to read SNMP objects
and receive traps.
■
All (read-write and trap) — Allows the specified IP address to read
SNMP objects, change the objects using the SNMP
set
command,
and receive traps.
Use the
set community
command to create a Community Table entry. For
example, to add a community name of NCS with the IP address
195.36.58.217 that has read_write access, enter the following
command:
CB9000> set community NCS read_write 195.36.58.217
Community entry names are case-sensitive. For example, NCS and ncs are
different community names. You can use the
show community
command
to view existing community entries.
The wildcard value of All appears as
***.***.***.***
for IP addresses.
The value for All access privileges is only
all
.
