The default strings are:
•
public
- with read-only access. Authorized management
stations are only able to retrieve MIB objects.
•
private
- with read-write access. Authorized management
stations are able to both retrieve and modify MIB objects.
Note:
If you do not intend to utilize SNMP, it is recommended
that you delete both of the default community strings. If
there are no community strings, then SNMP management
access to the switch is disabled.
To prevent unauthorized access to the switch via SNMP, it is
recommended that you change the default community strings.
To configure a community string, complete the following steps:
1. From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode
prompt, type “snmp-server community
string
mode
,” where
“string” is the community access string and “mode” is
rw
(read/write) or
ro
(read only). Press <Enter>.
2. To remove an existing string, simply type “no snmp-server
community
string
,” where “string” is the community access
string to remove. Press <Enter>.
Console(config)#snmp-server community mis rw
Console(config)#snmp-server community private
Console(config)#
