allowed for external SNMP managers accessing objects in the MIB using the
Community Name 1 configuration option.

Community Name 1 configuration option. This includes all objects specified as either
read-only or read/write in the MIB RFCs.

Read/Write – Allows read and write access to the objects in the MIB for the NAM when
using the Community Name 1 configuration option. Allows access for all objects
specified as read/write in the MIB RFCs. However, access for all read-only objects is
specified as read-only.
