Configuring SNMP for Inband Access
You can configure SNMP for inband access using the following:
• Using SNMP v2 without context—You can use a community that is mapped to a context. In this case,
the SNMP client does not need to know about the context.
• Using SNMP v2 with context—The SNMP client needs to specify the context by specifying a community;
for example, <community>@<context>.
• Using SNMP v3—You can specify the context.
