SNMP community features
Use SNMP communities to restrict access to the switch by SNMP management stations by adding, editing, or
deleting SNMP communities. You can configure up to five SNMP communities, each with either an operator-level
or a manager-level view and either restricted or unrestricted write access.
Using SNMP requires that the switch have an IP address and subnet mask compatible with your network.
