Hi,

I have not added this type of question to the FAQ (but I will do it for
the 3.4.7 release!). So, here is what I wrote on similar questions
(you may find more details in the mailing list archive):

I probably should add this question to the FAQ. I am just quoting an answer
I gave in a previous mail here:

This check is done in two ways - depending on whether you
have SNMPv3 support enabled or not:

1. (with SNMPv3): Any authentication is handled by the VACM. You
can configure communities in the VACM-MIB. See the examples
for details. With SNMPv3 support enabled you can even define
communities for sub tress and access types.

2. (without SNMPv3): The community is checked within the RequestList
class by:
boolean RequestList::community_ok(int pdutype, const OctetStr& community)
You should override this method by sub classing if you want to support
more than one read/write community.

Best regards,
Frank
