Configuring for Network Management Applications
Using SNMP Tools To Manage the Switch
Caution For ProCurve Manager (PCM) version 1.5 or earlier (or any TopTools version),
deleting the “public” community disables some network management
functions (such as traffic monitoring, SNMP trap generation, and threshold
setting). If network management security is a concern, and you are using the
above software versions, ProCurve recommends that you change the write
access for the “public” community to “Restricted”.
