SNMP community names are similar to passwords. The community name sent with a request must match the community name expected by the target SNMP node (agent). Some SNMP nodes support multiple levels of access based on the community name (e.g., read-only versus read-write). Since the capability of changing a remote node's configuration may be sensitive, only store read-only SNMP community names in this database.
Each peripheral has a single line with the following format.
peripheralname community
peripheralname is the official peripheral name (see hosts.5 For aliases, enter additional lines in the same format.
community is the SNMP community name used to access the peripheralname. Separate the fields by blanks or tabs. Empty lines are ignored. A # character indicates the beginning of a comment; characters from the # character to the end of the line are ignored.
Use the default special name to indicate the community name used if a peripheral is not found in the database. This entry usually has the value public.
# Community name for the monet peripheral is painter monet painter # Default community name is public default public
