There is no similar tag like 'ipid' to directly link the community string to a parameter. If you want to show the community string from the connector, you can retrieve it via QAction logic and maintain the parameter that way.

it posible change it by qaction?

Robin Spruytte [SLC] [DevOps Advocate] commented 26th August 2024

Yes, changing the community string is also possible. Here’s on example on how to get the community string.

IDms dms = Protocol.GetDms();
IDmsElement thisElement = dms.GetElement(Protocol.ElementName);
ISnmpV2Connection snmpv2Connection = (ISnmpV2Connection)thisElement.Connections.First();
return snmpv2Connection.GetCommunityString;

If you want update the communitystring you can override the GetCommunityString and then call thisElement.Update(), which will apply the updates on the element

hello

this process restart the element?

Thanks

Robin Spruytte [SLC] [DevOps Advocate] commented 23rd January 2025

If the new value is different from the old one. Than the element will restart, just as would happen if you did it manually. If the value is the same as the previous value, it will not trigger an element restart.

Hola Juan,

I don't know your specific use case, but since you are dealing with community strings, you may want to explore the DataMiner Credentials Manager, which allows Managing predefined sets of credentials for SNMP authentication | DataMiner Docs

First, you define a set of credentials and share it with some user groups.

Then, when configuring SNMP element connections, you can choose from the existing credentials sets rather than setting the community strings manually.

This way, you can more easily manage your credentials across the DataMiner system.

Modifying the credential sets will trigger an automatic restart of the element, and the new credentials will be applied immediately.
