is granted. The view that you want must exist before you can associate it to a community string. Here
is an example of how to use the view parameter in the community string command.
device(config)#snmp-s community myread ro view sysview
The command in this example associates the view "sysview" to the community string named "myread".
The community string has read-only access to "sysview". For information on how to create views, refer
to
SNMP v3 configuration examples on page 151.
The standard-ACL-name | standard-ACL-id parameter is optional. It allows you to specify which ACL
group will be used to filter incoming SNMP packets. You can enter either the ACL name or its ID. Here
are some examples.
device(config)#snmp-s community myread ro view sysview 2
device(config)#snmp-s community myread ro view sysview myACL
The command in the first example indicates that ACL group 2 will filter incoming SNMP packets;
whereas, the command in the second example uses the ACL group called "myACL" to filter incoming
packets.Refer to "Using ACLs to restrict SNMP access" section in the FastIron Ethernet Switch
Security Configuration Guide for more information.
NOTE
To make configuration changes, including changes involving SNMP community strings, you must first
configure a read-write community string using the CLI. Alternatively, you must configure another
authentication method and log on to the CLI using a valid password for that method.
