Hi,

I have some confusion on snmp statements. what is the difference between
community string define in snmp-server host statement and snmp-server
community statement. like

R1(config)#snmp-server host 192.168.1.100 version 2c Cisco

R1(config)#snmp-server community TEST-RO ro

R1(config)#snmp-server community TEST-RW rw

"Cisco" string is for host 192.168.1.100 to fetch information from snmp but
why we use these other communities with snmp-server community commands and
also tell me what are the right of string that is with host command (read or
read/write)?

Best Regards
