Sample Configuration Scripts 71
The Write Community String specifies the community string to be used by a
management station when sending write requests to this system.
Write Community String : private
3Com recommends, for security reasons, that you change the default
write community string that is used when a VCX Connect server
communicates with an SNMP management station. To change the
default value, erase the suggested string (private) and enter one that you
want. Otherwise, press the Enter or Return key to accept the default
value. NOTE: If you make a change here, you must make the same
change on your SNMP management PC.
The Read Community String specifies the community string to be used by a
management station when sending read requests to this system.
Read Community String : public
3Com recommends, for security reasons, that you change the default
read community string that is used when a VCX Connect server
communicates with an SNMP management station. To change the
default value, erase the suggested string (private) and enter one that you
want. NOTE: If you make a change here, you must make the same
change on your SNMP management PC.
Common Agent supports a management station authentication feature.
Answering 'Y' here will allow only a set of pre-identified SNMP management
stations to manage the system. (You will be able to enter IP addresses of
authorized management stations next. Authorized management stations can
also be configured using EMS or another management station at a later
point.)
Enable management station authentication? [N] :
Press the Enter or Return key to accept the default answer and leave
management station authentication disable. To enable this feature, enter
Y. NOTE: If you answer Y, the script prompts you for up to four IP
addresses. SNMP communictions will be accepted only from those IP
addresses.
Do you wish to change any of the Common Agent parameters? [N] :
Press the Enter or Return key to accept the answers that you have entered
or accepted in the Common Agent portion of the script. If you answer Y,
the script repeats the questions and you can make any changes that you
want.
