SNMP Write Community Name

Page 32 highlights

Chapter 6 Basic IP Address and Subnet Mask: They specify the IP address and subnet mask of the Switch. You can use this IP address to access and manage the Switch. To facilitate management, please assign the Switch an IP address within your LAN subnet in most cases. Default Gateway: It specifies the IP address of the default gateway on your LAN. CPU VLAN ID: It specifies the native VLAN ID of the Switch. MAC Address Aging Time(s): It specifies the aging time of dynamically learned MAC addresses in the MAC address table. If a dynamic MAC address remains inactive (neither used nor updated) for the specified amount of time, it is removed from the address table. In most cases, please leave the default value. System Name: It specifies the name of the Switch. Password: It specifies the password (case sensitive) you use to login to the Switch. The default value is blank. Confirm Password: You should re-enter the password. ARP Spoofing Prevention: It allows you to enable or disable ARP spoofing prevention. If you select the check box to enable this feature, it will effectively protect the Switch against ARP spoofing attacks. Enable SNMP: It allows you enable or disable SNMP agent. If you select the check box to enable SNMP agent on the Switch, the SNMP settings will take effect. Else, they will be of no effect. SNMP Trap Host: It specifies the IP address of the host that receives SNMP traps. The default is 0.0.0.0, which means that the Switch won't send traps to any host. SNMP Read Community Name: It specifies the community name used for read-only access to the Switch. Using this community name, your SNMP manager can retrieve the configuration and status information of the Switch. SNMP Write Community Name: It specifies the community name used for read-write access to the Switch. Using this community name, your SNMP manager can modify the configuration of the Switch. SNMP Trap Community Name: It specifies the community name used when the Switch sends traps. Note 1. To ensure security, it is strongly recommended that you set the password, remember your new password and keep it safe. If you forgot your password, you need to use the Reset button to reset the Switch to factory default settings. 2. In this page, you can either manually change the Switch IP parameters (IP address, subnet mask and default gateway) as required, or enable DHCP client to make the http://www.level1.com Page 25
