Use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Device 
Server. This management method requires the SNMP agent on the Device Server and 
on the SNMP network management station (NMS) to use the same community 
string. This management method uses two community strings: “get” community 
string and “set” community string: 
•  If the SNMP NMS knows the “Set” community string, it can read and write to the 
MIBs.  
•  If it only knows the “Get” community string, it can only read MIBs.  
The default get and “Set” community strings for the Device Server are “public” and 
“private” respectively.  
When new parameters are assigned, click the SAVE button to implement the new 
settings. Click the RESET button to restore the original parameters if the changes 
have not been saved.
