You can designate the
SNMP Community String 1
to be
the password for WM, for example, to have read/write
access to the module via SNMP, or for all SNMP access to
the module to be read only.
SNMP Community
String 2 (Read Only)
Specify an additional control string that can allow an
Network Management Station (NMS) to read SNMP
information. No spaces are allowed in this string. The
default string is
Canopyro
. This password will never
authenticate a user or an NMS to read/write access.
The
Community String
value is clear text and is readable
by a packet monitor. Additional security derives from the
configuration of the

,
Trap Address
, and
Permission
parameters.
The reboot of radio is not required after modifying
SNMP Community String 1 to take effect.

The hex character input is driven by RFC 3411
recommendations on the Engine ID. The default Engine ID is
the MAC address of the device
