Configuring System Information 2-23
v1.0, May, 2008
Table 2-12. SNMP V1/V2 Community Configurable Data
Field Description
Management Station IP Taken together, the Management Station IP and the Management Station IP
Mask denote a range of IP addresses from which SNMP clients may use
that community to access this device. If either (Management Station IP or
Management Station IP Mask) value is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from any
IP address. Otherwise, every client’s address is ANDed with the mask, as is
the Management Station IP Address; and, if the values are equal, access is
allowed. For example, if the Management Station IP and Management
Station IP Mask parameters are 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client
whose address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) will be
allowed access. To allow access from only one station, use a Management
Station IP Mask value of 255.255.255.255, and use that machine’s IP
address for Client Address.
