SET SNMP COMMUNITY

Syntax

set snmp community="

community

"

[access=read|write]

[open=yes|no]

Parameters

community

Specifies the SNMP community string whose access

level or access status is to be changed. This community
string must already exist on the switch. This parameter
is case sensitive. The name must be enclosed in
double quotes if it contains a space or other special
character such as an exclamation point. Otherwise, the
quotes are optional.

access

Specifies the new access level. Options are “read” for

read only access and “write” for both read and write
access. If no access level is specified, the default is
“read.”

open

Specifies the open or closed access status of the

community string. The options are:

yes

The community string is open, meaning that any
management station can use the string to
access the switch.

no

The community string is closed, meaning that
only those management stations whose IP
addresses are assigned to the string can use it
to access the switch. To add IP addresses of
management stations to a community string,
refer to “ADD SNMP COMMUNITY” on page 66.
The default setting for a community string is
closed.
