A network administrator is deploying HP 5800 switches at the access layer and wants to manage
them with HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC). When SNMP is enabled on these switches,
which version of SNMP is implemented by default?

A.
SNMP version 3
Parameter Type: Select the version of SNMP (v1 or v2c) that is configured on the device to
be added from the Parameter Type list.
You can only add devices that are configured with SNMPv3 using SNMP templates.
Therefore, you must create an SNMP template with the SNMPv3 parameters for this device
before adding this device.
B.
SNMP version 1
Read-Only Community String: Enter the read-only community string for this device in the
Read-Only Community String field. This value must match the read only community string
that is configured on the device to be added.
C.
SNMP version 2c with backward compatibility with version 1
Read-Write Community String: Enter the read-write community string for this device in the
Read-Write Community String field. This value must match the read-write community string
that is configured on the device to be added.
D.
SNMP version 2c

Read-Write Community String: Enter the read-write community string for this device in the
Read-Write Community String field. This value must match the read-write community string
that is configured on the device to be added.
Explanation:
On IMC auto discovery:
The SNMP read and write community string configuration you enter here must match the SNMP
configuration settings on the devices to be discovered and managed. Refer to each vendor’s
manual for information on setting the SNMP configuration parameters for each device type.
In the basic auto discovery mode, only SNMP v1 is supported
Note on IMC advanced auto discovery:
To edit the SNMP parameters, verify that the radio button to the left of Edit SNMP
Parameters is selected.
