hmtsCommManagementMethod

Defines how community strings are assigned to transponders. 
automatic  - HMTS automatically assigns each device a
             its community string.  The user may not be able
             to modify the community string in the hmtsDevTable.
             The community string generated is normally based
             upon the device's MAC address. In the SCTE 25-2
             document (formerly HMS004), section A.4.2, there is
             a recommended method.
manualHmts - Configuration of the community string is to be made
             manually through the HMTS.  Setting the community string
             in the hmtsDevTable table does this.
manualXp   - Configuration of the community string is manually set
             prior to the transponder being put on the network.
             If the community string is invalid, then the community
             string assignment must be made manually using the
             hmtsDevTable table.
          
Note: is the responsability of the HMTS to keep the community strings
in the device and in the corresponding row of the hmtsDevCommString
column consistent. Each time the EMS changes the community string in
the device table, the HMTS must issue an SNMP set command to the
device (commonTrapCommunityString) such that these community strings
remain equal.
