SNMP Versions and Workflow
The Cisco 220 switch functions as an SNMP agent and supports SNMP v1, v2, and 
v3. It also reports system events to trap receivers using the traps defined in the 
Management Information Base (MIB) that it supports. 
SNMP v1 and v2
To control access to the system, a list of SNMP communities are defined. Each 
community consists of a community string and its access privilege. The system 
responds only to SNMP messages specifying the community that has the correct 
permissions and correct operations.
