 Get -- Allows the NMS to retrieve an object instance from the agent.

SNMP Community
An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations
running SNMP belong to. It helps define where information is sent. The
community name is used to identify the group. A SNMP device or agent may
belong to more than one SNMP community. It will not respond to requests from
management stations that do not belong to one of its communities. SNMP default
communities are:
 Write = private
 Read = public
System Options
Use this page to define management stations. You can also define a name,
location, and contact person for the Managed Switch.
