Configuring SNMP requires only a single step:
1. Create a community. See page 984.

Important Points to Remember
•
Typically, 5-second timeout and 3-second retry values on an SNMP server are sufficient for both LAN
and WAN applications. If you experience a timeout with these values, increase the timeout value to
greater than 3 seconds, and increase the retry value to greater than 2 on your SNMP server.
•
Group ACLs override user ACLs in SNMPv3 configurations when both are configured and the user is
part of the group.
Create a Community
The management station generates requests to either retrieve or alter the value of a management object and
is called the
SNMP manage
r. A network element that processes SNMP requests is called an
SNMP agent
.
An
SNMP community
is a group of SNMP agents and managers that are allowed to interact. Communities
are necessary to secure communication between SNMP managers and agents; SNMP agents do not
respond to requests from management stations that are not part of the community.
FTOS enables SNMP automatically when you create an SNMP community and displays
Message 1
. You
must specify whether members of the community may only retrieve values (read), or retrieve and alter
values (read-write).
