# Configure SNMP Views

When assigned to an SNMP community, an SNMP view controls access to a defined set of OID trees. For information about SNMP communities, see Configure an SNMP Community .

Example:

1. Define the systemInfo SNMP view providing access to the following OID tree:

> snmp view add systemInfo included 1.3.6.1.4.1.3697.1.50

2. Assign this view to the sysInfo community:

> snmp community add ro unguessable view=systemInfo

The sysInfocommunity can now access data in the .1.3.6.1.4.1.3697.1.50 OID tree.

Note: For a list of all the Appliance Controller commands, see the Command Index.
