4.7.1 Configuring a Community String
SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c community strings are used to define the relationship
between an SNMP manager and agent. The community string acts like a password
to permit access to the agent. The access granted with a community string is
restricted to the scope of the configured group.
One or more of the following characteristics associated with the string can be
specified:
• read-only, read-write, and read-write-all permission for the MIB objects
accessible to the community
• assignment of a unique community string to the management router or
management VPLS
• the SNMP version: SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or both
Default access features are preconfigured by the agent for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
