snmp - change community name

I want to change the snmp community name from "public" to something else. What all do I need to change in the snmpd.conf file to make this happen?

Do I only need to change this line?

com2sec notConfigUser default public

Thanks.

Re: snmp - change community name

Change that line only and restart the snmpd service. Make sure that the group has read only permissions:

# group context sec.model sec.level prefix read write notif
access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact systemview none none
