snmp community name change

Question

Hey all,

From time to time my department changes the SNMP community name on all our devices, is there any quick way of updating the community name for all devices in Orion when this happens? I would rather not have to goto every device and update the name manually.

TIA,

Curtis

FYI I needed to use single quotes around the old & new community strings.

Update Nodes
Set Community='new'
Where Community='old'

Make sure to set the Query selection to "Read-Write(Results can be edited)"

Edit the SNMP name in the database directly by running a query similar to;

Update Nodes
Set Community=<new-name>
Where Community=

using the Database Manager.
