I am using cisco Nexus5548 and trying to enter a snmp community, but it doesn't accept it. It shows:
NEXUS# snmp-server community <name> ro
Error : Not a valid Community Name
I enter a community name that is less than 32 characters, with symbols, numbers and letters. Any clues?
thank you.

Are you actually in configuration mode (issued the "configure terminal" command) when you issue this command?
If this is a direct cut and paste from your screen, the prompt would indicate that you're not - to enter this command, you need to be at the
NEXUS(config)#
prompt.
Cheers.
