Access Lists for SNMPv1 Communities
If the access list is empty for a defined community, SystemEDGE grants access to any system that uses the associated community name. The following restrictions apply to the access list:
- The access lists specified in sysedge.cf are used for SNMPv1 communication only.
- The SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 access list is configured separately in the SNMPv3 configuration file sysedgeV3.cf. For more information about how to define access lists for SNMPv3 users, see SNMPv3 Configuration.
- You must separate IP addresses by a space character; you cannot use any other characters, including the newline.
- The maximum length of a community string statement (including any access list) is 1024 characters, which provides enough space for about 60 IPv4 addresses and less for IPv6 addresses. To configure longer access lists, define separate communities.
- The SystemEDGE agent includes the edgewatch, edgemon, and emphistory command-line utilities, which act as manager systems, sending requests to the agent. If you are using any of these utilities on the same system on which the agent is installed, include the IP address of that system in the access list.
