Hi. I am a newbie to Cisco routers/switches and their commands.<br />
<br />
We are having a network performance assessment done on our network and to access the information on our Cisco routers, the SNMP string is needed. I have only been able to find out how to configure the SNMP. I wasn't sure if this was some sort of safety feature so that the string could not be found by an unwanted user.<br />
<br />
I have tinkered with the show snmp command, but am looking for either a different command or what I need to add to the show snmp command.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help.<br />

Cisco Router - How to find out the SNMP string

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
