Manage the Switch via the Device Manager Web Interface Chapter 3
Configure SNMP
Enable SNMP if you plan to have the switch managed through another network
management application. By default, SNMP is disabled.
Other general SNMP settings include the name of the switch or the network
administrator and the switch location. The system name and the system contact
information appear in the Switch Information area on the Dashboard.
Use the SNMP dialog box to update change the SNMP settings. To display this
dialog box, choose Configure>SNMP from the Device Manager Web interface
menu.
Community strings are passwords to the switch Management Information Base
(MIB). You can create community strings that allow a remote manager read-only
or read-write access to the switch.
Uncheck Enable SNMP to see
the Community Strings tab.
