add-arp-entry
add-arp-entry <
IPaddress
> <
mac_address
> <
port
>
Adds an entry to the ARP table manually.
del-arp-entry
del-arp-entry {<
IPaddress
>|*}
Deletes entries from the ARP table. If you enter an IP address, the
matching ARP entry is deleted. If you enter *, the entire ARP table is
cleared. Use this command if the network topology has physically
changed. For example, if a management station moves from one
segment to another, its port number changes.
SNMP commands
This section lists commands for configuring the SNMP agent itself,
access and trap configuration.
SNMP community strings
SNMP community strings authenticate access to the Management
Information Base (MIB). Community strings function as “passwords”
embedded in every SNMP packet. The community string must match
one of the two community strings configured in the switch for the
message to be processed. There are two community strings, one for
each of the following type of access:
read mode gives read access to all the objects in the MIB, but
doesn’t allow write access.
write mode gives read and write access to all objects in the MIB.
get-comm
get-comm {read|write|*}
Displays the SNMP community string for a given access mode (read
or write). If the access mode is specified as *, both read and write
community strings are displayed.

Current read community is: < public >
Current write community is: < private >
