Adding a Community String
To add a community string, follows these steps:
- From Fabric Manager, select Security->SNMP from the Physical pane menu and click the Communities tab in the Information pane.
From Device Manager, choose Security from the SNMP menu and click the Communities tab.
- Click Create on the Device Manager dialog box, or click the Create Row button on the Fabric Manager toolbar.
The Create Community string dialog box is displayed.
The dialog box from Fabric Manager also provides check boxes to specify one or more switches.
- Enter the community name in the Community field.
- Select the role from the drop-down list. In Fabric Manager, you can enter a new role name in the field if you do not want
to select one from the drop-down list. If you do this, you must go back and configure this role appropriately (see Configuring
Common Roles).
- Click Create to create the new entry or click Close to create the entry and close the dialog box.
