5. The key period expires. The AP creates two new random keys, loads them into the
inactive authenticator key indexes (Keys 1 and 2 in this example), and repeats the
process (starting at step 3).
SNMP Community Names
The SNMP community name allows management tools using SNMP to display or modify
AP parameters remotely.
The RoamAbout R2 supports SNMPv3. To access the RoamAbout R2 parameters via
SNMP, the management tool must know the Authentication Password and Privacy
Password. To support management tools using SNMPv2c or SNMPv1, the R2 provides
four community names that allow SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c read-only and read-write
access. The names are disabled by default with the exception of Community Name #1,
which is set to public. The community names are only accessible from the R2 console port.
The AP 2000 supports a read/write community name and a read-only community name. By
default, the AP uses public as the default read/write community name. This allows any
management tool using SNMP to access the AP and change parameters. By changing the
read/write community name, users must enter the correct community name to modify the
AP parameters. The read-only community name allows the management tools to view but
not change the AP parameters. You can change the read-only name so that users must enter
the correct name before they can view the AP parameters.
