• Do not accept SNMP v1/v2c traps
Use this option to turn off receiving SNMP v1\v2c traps. If selected, the Management
application will not receive any SNMP v1 and v2c traps.
• Accept SNMP v1/v2c traps with any community string
Use this option to turn on receiving SNMP v1 and v2c traps with any community string.
• Accept SNMP v1/v2c traps with only these community strings
Use this option to turn on receiving SNMP v1 and v2c traps with only the specified
community strings.
