Establishing Community Strings
SNMP management stations that want to access the SSR must supply a community string
that you establish on the SSR. You can establish an SSR community string by specifying
the string’s name and selecting the access privileges for that string. To establish
community strings on the SSR:
1. Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so.
2. Open the configuration file you want to modify and then double-click that file’s
System Configuration object.
3. Double-click the SNMP Configuration object.
Configuration Expert displays the SNMP Trap Target and SNMP Community String
objects.
4. Double-click the SNMP Community String object.
5. Do one of the following:
– If you are configuring a new community string, select the Configure New
Community String object.
– If you are modifying an existing community string, select it from the list of
community strings that appeared after you expanded the SNMP Community
String object.
An SNMP Community Strings dialog box similar to the following appears:
