To add the community string:

rduSnmpAgent.sh add community string [ro | rw]

Where:

<string>—Identifies the SNMP community.

<ro>—Assigns a read only (ro) community string. Only get requests (queries) can be performed. The ro 
community string allows Get requests, but no Set operations. The NMS and the managed device must 
reference the same community string.

<rw>—Assigns a read write (rw) community string. SNMP applications require RW access for Set 
operations. The rw community string enables write access to OID values.

The default ro and rw community strings are bprread and bprwrite respectively. Cisco 
recommends that you change these values before deploying BAC.

This example shows how to add an RDU SNMP agent community string:

> rduSnmpAgent.sh add community fsda54 ro

OK

Please restart [stop and start] RDU SNMP agent.

You can delete a SNMP community string to prevent access to the RDU SNMP agent.

You must use this syntax to delete the community string:

rduSnmpAgent.sh delete community string [ro | rw]

Where:

<string>—identifies the SNMP community

<ro>—assigns a read only (ro) community string

<rw>—assigns a read write (rw) community string

See the 

 for additional information on the 

ro and wr community strings.

This example shows how to delete an RDU SNMP agent community string:

> rduSnmpAgent.sh delete community fsda54 ro

OK

Please restart [stop and start] RDU SNMP agent.
