in the request matches the agent’s read-write community. Only the SNMP 
get and get-next requests are valid if the community string in the request 
matches the read-only community.

When you set a community string, you can specify any value up to 48 
characters long. 

To set a community string:

1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:

You are prompted for a read-only community value and then a read-write 
community value. If you do not want to change the value of a community 
string, press [Return] at either prompt.

2 At the read-only prompt, enter the community string.

3 At the read-write prompt, enter the community string.

For network management applications, you can use the Administration 
Console to manually administer the trap reporting address information. 

Displaying the trap reporting information shows you the various SNMP traps 
and the current configured destinations, as well as whether the proxying of 
remote SMT traps is enabled or disabled.

To show the configured trap reporting information, enter the following from 
the top level of the Administration Console:
