Community
Name Enter the Community name. The community name is a password that is stored in the
Strata CIX. To communicate with a Strata CIX, the Network eManager PC must send a
legal community name to the CIX when attempting to connect. The default community
name stored in the CIX is communityName (case sensitive). The CIX can store up to 10
community names.
IP Address Enter the IP address of the community name. Each community name is associated with an
IP address. This IP address is stored in the CIX with its associated community name.
Possible values:a.b.c.d.; a = 0~255, b = 0~255, c = 0~255, d = 0~255
Notes
• To allow any Network eManager PC to connect to the CIX with a particular community
name, enter
0.0.0.0 as the IP address for that community name.
• To allow only a specific Network eManager PC to connect to the CIX with a particular
community name, enter the static IP address of that PC for that community name.
Privileges Select User Privilege Levels. These privileges are to assign the community name or IP
address to an internal Strata CIX level.
Possible values:Read (default) or Write

internal Strata CIX access level.
