I accessed the archived report on Port Mon MIB interop testing which 
says...

Discussion of use of Community Name
Must be “public” for Port Monitor MIB to work
MS indicated that the Community Name at the logical port level is needed 
to be compatible with the existing applications. 

Is it correct to interpret this as "MS needs the Community Name" and "the 
Community Name must be "public"?

Regards,
Harry
