configure snmp community string more than 21 characters

[dudum]

Hi all,

i an trying to configure snmp community string more than 21 characters on switch 4006 catos and got the fallowing error....

Community string must be less than 21 characters.

Is it possible to configure a community string on catos more than 21 characters?

There is a Document explaining the maximum characters for community string?

Thanks in advance

David

Usually Cisco devices restricted upto 64 characters for SNMP community string. But it depends on platform and security concerns.
