How to Configure SNMP Security
1. Click the Services from Administrative Tools.
2. In the right pane, double-click SNMP Service.
3. Click the Security tab.
4. Click to select the Send authentication trap check box (if it is not
already selected) if you want a trap message sent whenever authentication
fails.
5. Under Accepted community names, click Add.
6. To specify how the host processes SNMP requests from the selected
community, click the permission level that you want in the Community Rights
box.
7. In the Community Name box, type the community name (Note: it is
case-sensitive) that you want, and then click Add.
8. Specify whether or not to accept SNMP packets from a host. To do so, do
one of the following:
• To accept SNMP requests from any host on the network,
regardless of identity, click Accept SNMP packets from any host.
• To limit the acceptance of SNMP packets, click Accept SNMP packets from
these hosts, click Add, and then type the appropriate host name, IP or IPX
address in the Host name, IP or IPX address box.
10. Click Add.
11. Click OK.
Note: 1. If you remove all of the community names, including the default
name "Public", SNMP does not respond to any community names that are
presented.
2. It is not recommended to enable Accept SNMP packets
from any hosts.
