rights of a group are Read, Write, and Notify.
To define SNMP communities:

Click
Configuration > System Management>SNMP > Communities
.
This page contains a table of configured SNMP communities and their properties.

Enter the following fields:
•
SNMP Management Station—Select
User Defined
to enter the management
station IP address that can access the SNMP community. Select
All

that any IP device can access the SNMP community.
•
IP Version—Select either IPv4 or IPv6.
•
IPv6 Address Type—Select the supported IPv6 address type if IPv6 is used. The
options are:
o
Link Local—The IPv6 address uniquely identifies hosts on a single network
link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and can be
used for communication only on the local network. Only one link local
address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface, this
entry replaces the address in the configuration.
o
Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and
reachable from other networks.
o
Interface—If the IPv6 address type is Link Local, select whether it is
received through a VLAN or ISATAP.
•
IP Address—Enter the SNMP management station IP address.
•
Community—Enter the community name used to authenticate the management
station to the device.
•
Access Control—Select one of the following:
o
Basic—In this mode, there is no connection to any group. You can only
choose the community access level (Read Only, Read Write, or SNMP
Admin) and, optionally, further qualify it for a specific view. By default, it
applies to the entire MIB.
o
Advanced—In this mode, access is controlled by group configurations.
•
Access Mode—Configure the community:
o
Read Only—Management access is restricted to read-only. Changes
cannot be made to the community.
