I have put in a Community String for alot of other devices (about 2500 ish).
the problem on the UTM is when I use "+" or "{" symbols, the UTM responds with the following;
The SNMP community string requires an SNMP string.
weird, anyone else come across this issue?
The help says the following so it seems to be by design:
Select allowed networks.
Networks listed in the Allowed Networks box are able to query the SNMP agent running on Sophos UTM. You should only add networks to the Allowed Networks that will query the SNMP agent, it is not advisable to add any none private networks to the list. Note that the access is always read-only.
Community string: When using version 2, enter a community string. An SNMP community string acts as a password that is used to protect access to the SNMP agent. By default, the SNMP community string is "public", but you can change it to any setting that best suits your needs.
Note – Allowed characters for the community string are: (a-z), (A-Z), (0-9), (+), (_), (@), (.), (-), (blank).
thanks for this, very helpful.
funny how all the other routers/firewall/switches don't have this issue.
you learn something new everyday :)
