The SNMP Community Names Screen
Page 5-12
The SNMP Community Names screen enables the user to establish or
modify the community names which serve as passwords to LM and to
determine the level of security access the LM user is accorded.
5.4.1 Community Name
Use these fields to define community name strings. Each name set in these
fields will be accorded the security access level named on the same line to
the right, in the Access Policy column.
5.4.2 Access Policy
The Access Policy column indicates the access status accorded to the
corresponding community name. Three pre-configured levels of LM
access are available:
Read-only
1
This level of access allows a user partial access to view LM screens. The
user will not be allowed to write to any field in LM, nor will the user be
allowed to view the super-user or read-write community names.
Read-write 2
This level of access allows a user to view LM screens and to change values
set in them, including the read-only community name. The user will not
be able to write to the IP Address, the Subnet Mask, or read-write
community name fields, nor will the user will be allowed to view the
super-user name.
Super-user 3
This level of access is absolute and will grant a user full LM access
privileges to read and edit any LM parameters, including community
names.
