vyatta@R1# set service snmp community abc123 client 2001:db8:2::16
vyatta@R1# set service snmp community abc123 client 2001:db8:2::17

Set the privilege level for this community to read-only.

vyatta@R1# set service snmp trap-target 2001:db8:2::16
vyatta@R1# set service snmp trap-target 2001:db8:2::17
