    Hi,
    What can a malicious  person do  to my Aruba 2930 switch if this statement is configured on the switch ?
    snmp-server community "my-string" operator unrestricted

     

    If this were 'manager unrestricted" the attacker would have complete control of my switch. I am thinking that this statement gives any potential attacker the abilty to change configuraton on the switch.

    WhatWhat does "operator unrestricted" imply ?
