Configuring SNMP Community String for Traps

You can configure a unique password-like community string for sending SNMP traps. The device sends the traps with the configured community string.

To configure SNMP community strings for traps:
1. Open the SNMP Settings page (Setup menu > Administration tab > SNMP folder > SNMP Settings).
2. In the 'Trap Community String' field, configure a community string:

3. Click Apply, and then reset the device with a save-to-flash for your settings to take effect.

The community string can be up to 30 characters and can include only the following:

Upper- and lower-case letters (a to z, and A to Z)
Numbers (0 to 9)
Hyphen (-)
Underline (_)

The default is "trapuser".

The parameter cannot be configured with wide characters.
