3.2.4 Setting SNMP Community Names
Purpose
To set SNMP Management community names and access policies. Community names act as
passwords to remote SNMP management. Access is controlled by enacting either of two levels of
security authorization (read-only or read-write.)
Commands
The commands needed to set community names are listed below and described in the associated
section as shown.
• show community (Section 3.2.4.1)
• set community (Section 3.2.4.2)
• clear community (Section 3.2.4.3)
NOTE: Read-write access gives the user full management privileges, allows existing
passwords to be changed, and all modifiable MIB objects to be edited.
