11.2.1.7 Defining SNMP
11.2.1.7.1. Configuring SNMP Community Configuration Page
By default, two SNMP Communities exist:
private, with 'Read/Write' privileges and status set to enable
public, with 'Read Only' privileges and status set to enable
These are well-known communities, you can use this menu to change the defaults or to add
other communities. Only the communities that you define using this menu will have access to
the switch using the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c protocols. Only those communities with read-write
level access will have access to this menu via SNMP.
You should use this menu when you are using the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c protocol: if you want
to use SNMP v3 you should use the User Accounts menu.
