Community String
The community string allows a very simple method
of authentication between the Switch 1005 and the remote Network
Manager. The text string can be of 32 characters or less. If you want a
Network Manager to receive traps generated by the device, you must
enter the community string of the remote Network Manager into the
trap table. The default community string is
public
.
Throttle
To prevent a remote Network Manager receiving too many
traps at once, you can configure the Switch 1005 to transmit traps with
a delay between them. If several traps are generated at one time, they
will be transmitted with the specified delay between them. The unit of
throttle is one thousandth of a second. The default value is 100, which
gives a minimum delay of one tenth of a second between each
transmission.
