6. Click the Apply button to create the new community string.

strings.

Config button in the Configuration menu.

Access Mode

Specifies the access mode for a SNMP
community string. A string with a Read
Only access mode can only be used to
view the MIB objects on the switch. A
string with a Read/Write access mode can
be used to both view and change the
SNMP MIB objects.

Allow Any Station

Sets the community string as opened or
closed. If there is no check in the box next
to the option, the community string is
closed and only those workstations whose
IP addresses are assigned to the
community string can use it. If there is a
check in the box, the string is open,
meaning any SNMP management
workstation can use it to access the stack.

Manager IP Address 1 to 8

Specifies the IP addresses of
management workstations. If you assign a
community string a closed status, use
these fields to specify the IP addresses of
up to eight management workstations
permitted to use the community string.
Entering manager IP addresses for a
community string with an open status has
no affect on the string.

Trap Receiver IP Address
1 to 8

Specifies the IP addresses of up to eight
trap receivers. These are nodes on your
network, such as your management
workstation, to act as trap receivers for
the stack.
