7.1
Changing the SNMPv1/v2 community
SNMPv1/v2 works unencrypted. Every SNMP packet contains the IP address of the sender and the
plaintext community name with which the sender accesses the device. If SNMPv1/v2 is enabled,
then the device lets anyone who knows the community name access the device.
The community names
public
for read accesses and
private
for write accesses are preset. If you
are using SNMPv1 or SNMPv2, then change the default community name. Treat the community
names with discretion.
Perform the following steps:
Open the
Device Security > Management Access > SNMPv1/v2 Community
dialog.
The dialog displays the communities that are set up.
For the
Write
community, specify in the
Name
column the community name.
Up to 32 alphanumeric characters are allowed.
The device differentiates between upper and lower case.
Specify a different community name than for read access.
To save the changes temporarily, click the button.
