Command or script to configure a Community String

Question

Hello,

How can I configure Community Strings remotely on devices in the network?

Is there any CMD or PowerShell command for that?

Thanks,

Yes, Windows 10 devices are the target, I already tried SolarWinds SNMP Enabler but I getting an Access Denied error with WMI, because SolarWinds uses WMI with admin credentials to access the device.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

Windows Servers you can use: https://www.solarwinds.com/free-tools/snmp-enabler-for-windows

Linux servers we use the same config deployment we use for everything else to install SNMP and configure it. Maybe something like:

And if you are talking about other devices, you may want to tell us specfically what you have if you need help. I typically just google it. Since you said CMD or powershell, I am betting windows is your target. Also consider WMI and the agent.
