SNMP-communities
SNMP authentifies requests by so called communities. The public community has to be added
to SNMP-read-requests and the private community to SNMP write requests. You can see the
SNMP communites like read/write passwords. SNMP v1 and v2 transmit the communities
without encryption. Therefore it is simple to spy out these communities. We recommend to use
a DMZ or IP ACL.
