3.5 SNMP-based Network Management
You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Managed Switch, such
as SNMPc Network Manager, HP Openview Network Node Management (NNM) or What’s Up Gold.
This management method requires the SNMP agent on the switch and the SNMP Network Management
Station to use the
same community string
. This management method, in fact, uses two community
strings: the
get community
string and the
set community
string. If the SNMP Network management
Station only knows the set community string, it can read and write to the MIBs. However, if it only knows
the get community string, it can only read MIBs. The default gets and sets community strings for the
Managed Switch are public.
