Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
The SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c security models use a community-based form of security. Use this command
to configure read-only or read-write access for an SNMP community name. The configured community
text string is used for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c user authentication.
To display the SNMP communities on the switch, use the show snmp community command.
Supported on the MX9116n and MX5108n switches in Full Switch mode starting in release 10.4.0E(R3S).
Also supported in SmartFabric mode starting in release 10.5.0.1.
These points are applicable when you assign an ACL to an SNMP community:
● By default, SNMP requests from all hosts are allowed.
● You can only apply permit ACL rues to an SNMP community. deny ACL rules do not take effect if
you apply them.
● To permit SNMP requests for multiple hosts, apply individual permit ACL rules for hosts or prefixes.
● Applying ACL rules for an SNMP community in a nondefault VRF is not supported.
The no version of the command removes the configured community text string.
