  • If the manager sends one of the correct read-only community strings, it can get information and set information in an agent.
  • Commonly known community strings should be used when configuring secure SNMP.
  • A vulnerability of SNMPv1, SNMPv2, and SNMPv3 is that they send the community strings in plaintext.
  • SNMP read-write community strings can be used to set information on an SNMP-enabled device.
