Goto Settings > Manage Nodes - Select all the Nodes you want to update. Click on "Edit Nodes" This will load up the Edit Nodes window as a bulk edit screen, you can then edit the fields you want.

There is one caveat. The nodes you bulk edit all have to be using the same polling method. So if they are all currently ICMP you can change them to SNMP, but if it's a mix you have to break it down into batches.

Make sure to put a tick in the "Polling Method" box. Then you can change the method to SNMP and fill in the required community string.

As for changing the community string on multiple devices, again a similar process you just select all the nodes you want to update (just ensure they are all going to be using the same new community string) and update that section.
