Configure SNMP Community Strings

Only perform this task if the ZFS storage appliance is configured to use SNMPv1 or v2.

Because SNMP is often used to monitor the health of the device, it is important that the default SNMP community string used by the device be changed to a customer-defined value.

1. Log in to the ZFS storage appliance.

   See Log into the ZFS Storage Appliance.

2. Change the SNMP community string.

   In this example, replace string with a value that is compliant with U.S. Department of Defense requirements regarding the composition of SNMP community strings.

   hostname:> configuration services snmp set community=string
   community = value
   

3. Verify the SNMP community string.

   hostname:> configuration services snmp get community
