Switch Management Commands 2262
• ip-address — Specifies the IP address or subnet of the management
station(s). If no IP address is specified, all management stations are
permitted. Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are accepted. If a subnet is
specified, it may be entered in the form of an IPv4 address, followed by a
space and a forward slash, followed by the decimal number of significant
bits with no intervening spaces, or the IP address may be followed by an
IPv4 mask in dotted quad notation. The range of IPv4 significant bits is
1 to 31 bits.

User Guidelines
The group-name parameter can be used to restrict the access rights of a
community string. When it is specified, the software:
• Generates an internal security-name.
• Maps the internal security-name for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 security
models to the group-name.
The community name may include any printable characters except a question
mark, a backslash, or an at sign. Enclose the string in double quotes to include
spaces within the name. The surrounding quotes are not used as part of the
name. The CLI does not filter illegal characters and may accept entries up to
the first illegal character, or reject the entry entirely.
Example
The following example maps a community access string dell_community to
group dell_group and restricts access to host 192.168.29.1.
console(config)# snmp-server community-group dell_community dell_group
ipaddress 192.168.29.1
