6.7.1 Establishing Community Names
The password used to access Local Management at the Password Screen
must have Super-User access in order for edits in the SNMP Community
Names screen to take effect. Using a password with Read-Only or
Read-Write access does not allow the user to edit the SNMP Community
Names screen.
To establish community names, proceed as follows:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Community Name field adjacent
to the selected access level.
2. Enter the password in the field (maximum 31 characters).
3. Press ENTER.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 to modify the other community names.
5. Use the arrow keys to highlight SAVE at the bottom of the screen and
press ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” appears. The community
names are saved to memory and their access modes implemented.
6. To exit the screen, use the arrow keys to highlight RETURN and press
ENTER.
NOTE
Any community name assigned in the SNMP Community
Names screen is a password to its corresponding level of
access to Local Management. The community name assigned
Super-User access is the only one that gives the user complete
access to Local Management.
NOTE
Exiting without saving causes a “NOT SAVED?” message to
display above the SAVE command. Edits will be lost if they are
not saved before exiting.
