9.2.2 SNMP Community Strings
In SNMP v1/v2c, the SNMP Community String is sent unencrypted in the
SNMP packets. Caution must be taken by the network administrator to
ensure that SNMP packets travel only over a secure and private network if
security is a concern.
For proper SNMP operation, the MIB files must be used with the associated
version of the CRS-500 M&C. Refer to the CRS-500 FW Release Notes for
information on the required FW/SW compatibility.
The CRS-500 uses Community Strings as a password scheme that provides authentication
before gaining access to the CRS-500 MIBs. They are used to authenticate users and determine
access privileges to the SNMP agent.
Type the SNMP Community String into the user-supplied MIB Browser or Network Node
Management software. Two Community Strings are defined for SNMP access:
•
Read Community default = public
•
Write Community default = private
