snmp-server community
Creates an SNMP community. An SNMP community is an organization of hosts such as SNMP
managers that require access to MIB objects on a device.
Mode
root
Syntax
snmp-server community <community-name> <security-name>
[address <ip-address> [mask <ip mask>]] [context <context>]
[storage {volatile | nonvolatile | permanent | readonly}]
Arguments
<community-name> Name that identifies the SNMP community. An SNMP community
name is like a user ID or password that allows hosts to access a
device's MIB objects.
<security-name> Specifies the name of the security group that the community
uses. If the group does not already exist, two group entries will be
created using the name. These entries correspond to the SNMP
version 1 and SNMP version 2c entries for the community.
address <ip-address> IP address of a host or a range of hosts that are members of the
SNMP community. If you do not specify an address, all hosts are
allowed access using the community string.
mask <ip mask> Mask for the IP address. The mask allows you to specify a range
of hosts. For example, you can specify an IP address of
220.220.0.0 with a mask of 255.255.0.0. This allows any host
from 220.220.0.0 through 220.220.255.255 to access MIB
objects in the SNMP community.
context <context> Name of the SNMP context that is used with the specified
community when accessing the security group. Keep in mind that
the context is one of the parameters that allows access to a group
entry, along with group name, security model, and security level.
