GS748T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual To configure SNMP communities: 1. To add a new SNMP community, enter community information in the available fields described below, and then click Add. • Management Station IP. Specify the IP address of the management station.Together, the Management Station IP and the Management Station IP Mask denote a range of IP addresses from which SNMP clients may use that community to access this device. If either (Management Station IP or Management Station IP Mask) value is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from any IP address. Otherwise, every client's address is ANDed with the mask, as is the Management Station IP Address; and, if the values are equal, access is allowed. For example, if the Management Station IP and Management Station IP Mask parameters are 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, then any client whose address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) will be allowed access. To allow access from only one station, use a Management Station IP Mask value of 255.255.255.255, and use that machine's IP address for Client Address. • Management Station IP Mask. Specify the subnet mask to associate with the management station IP address. • Community String. Specify a community name. A valid entry is a case-sensitive string of up to 16 characters. • Access Mode. Specify the access level for this community by selecting Read/Write or Read Only from the menu. • Status. Specify the status of this community by selecting Enable or Disable from the pull down menu. If you select Enable, the Community Name must be unique among all valid Community Names or the set request will be rejected. If you select Disable, the Community Name will become invalid.
