Documentation

  The password (community name) that you want the WebLogic SNMP agent to use to secure communication with SNMP managers.

  Note that there are two community names that are needed when the WebLogic SNMP agent and SNMP managers interact:

  - The name that you specify in this community prefix. All SNMP managers must send this name when connecting to the WebLogic SNMP agent.

  - The community name that the SNMP manager defines. The WebLogic SNMP agent must send this name when connecting to the manager. (You supply this community name when you configure a trap destination.)

  In addition to using the community prefix as a password, the WebLogic SNMP agent uses the prefix to qualify requests from SNMP managers. Because a WebLogic Server domain can have multiple server instances concurrently active, a request that specifies only an attribute name is potentially ambiguous. For example, the attribute `serverUptime` exists for each WebLogic Server instance in a domain. To clarify requests, use the community prefix as follows:

  - To request the value of an attribute on a specific Managed Server, when you send a request from an SNMP manager, append the name of the server instance to the community prefix: `community_prefix@server_name` .

  - To request the value of an attribute on the Administration Server, send a community name with the following form: `community_prefix`

  - To request the value of an attribute for all server instances in a domain, send a community name with the following form: `community_prefix@domain_name`

  To secure access to the values of the WebLogic attributes, it is recommended that you set community prefix to a value other than `public`.
