Information
The example below configures a community named public that is mapped to the 
security named 
guestuser with Read Only (ro) permissions.
Example
FTOS#config
FTOS(conf)# snmp-server community public ro
FTOS(conf)# snmp-server community guest ro security-name guestuser
FTOS(conf)#
The security-name parameter maps the community string to an SNMPv3 user/
security name as defined by the community MIB. 
If a community string is configured without a 
security-name (for example, 
snmp-server community public ro), the community is mapped to a default 
security-name/group:
• v1v2creadu / v1v2creadg — maps to a community with 
ro (read-only) 
permissions
community-name
Enter a text string (up to 20 characters long) to act as a password for 
SNMP. 
ro

name (a string up to 16 characters long).

(Optional) Enter the keyword security-name followed by the 
security name as defined by the community MIB.
