BMC SNMP Agent Default Community Name (public)

Nessus security scans is showing the following vulnerability: BMC SNMP Agent Default Community Name (public)

I'm having trouble finding where to change the BMC community name on a Dell server. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick

It’s in idrac, SNMP settings, and in two places, depends on your version, but probably settings-network-services and also settings-services-snmp agent

Hello and thanks for posting. I checked the iDRAC settings on this server and I had the community string changed in both places. Nessus is showing this vulnerability for port 8161. If I check resource monitor, core.service.exe is what is using this port. This appears to be AppAssure. Any ideas on where to change this string in AppAssure?
