I work for a large public university and we're debating this snmp community strings issue. The issue is this: one faction thinks the community strings on switches within the Students Res Halls should be different from strings on switches serving the rest of the campus for security reasons. The network infrastructure consists of layer 3 cisco swithes at the core layer and layer 2 cisco & 3com switches at the edges. There are no layer 3 devices in the Res Halls. My question is this: does such a separation gain us anything significant with regard to security? What's the group's take on this? Thanks.
