In the Polling Settings there is a check box for "Allow Secure Data On Web (advanced)" and it states "Allow SNMP community strings to be visible in the Orion Web Console." What view shows the string used to poll the device?

This setting relates to Toolset integration (where you can right-click on a node link and launch tools on your desktop). With “Allow Secure Data on Web” checked, the community string will be included with the context info provided to the tool. With it unchecked, thetool will not get the community string and will have to prompt the user for it.
This setting has no effect on the node management section of the web – admins are always allowed to see community strings.
If you edit the node properties under "Manage nodes" you can see the assigned string.
The string shows in that view if that field is checked or unchecked. So what is the purpose of that checkbox?
