Password / SNMPv3 access
43
Note: When you change the SNMPv3 password for the read/write access,
the device automatically synchronizes the readWrite community for the
SNMPv1/v2 access to the same value. Similarly, when the read access
password is changed, the device synchronizes the readOnly community for
SNMPv1/v2 (see on page 45 “SNMPv1/v2 Access Settings“).
As the Web-based interface displays the communities readably in the dialog
for SNMPv1/v2, this dialog can only be accessed by a user who has logged
in with the user name “admin” and the correct read/write password.
Note: When you change the SNMPv3 password for the user name with
which you have logged in to the Web-based interface, log in again so that you
can access the Web-based interface of the device again. Otherwise you will
get a general error message when you attempt to access it.

Note: If you do not know a password with “read/write” access, you will not
have write access to the device.
