Parameter

Description

This parameter returns information about all of the SNMP communities in the storage array.

communityName

The name of the SNMP community for which you want to retrieve information. Enclose the SNMP community name in double quotation marks (" ").

snmpCommunities

The names of several SNMP communities for which you want to retrieve information. Enter the names of the SNMP communities using these rules:
  • Enclose all of the names in square brackets ([ ]).
  • Enclose each of the names in double quotation marks (" ").

summary

This parameter returns a list of the total number of SNMP communities and the total number of SNMP trap destinations. When you use this parameter information detail is omitted.

Notes

SNMP supports one or more communities to which managers and managed devices belong. SNMP requests contain a community string in the data packets passed over the network that acts as a crude password. SNMP agents can reject GET or SET requests with an unrecognized community string. A community string is also included in TRAP notifications sent from agent to manager as well.

The embedded SNMP agent supports both IPV4 and IPV6.

This command returns SNMP community information similar to this example.
