Unable to add SNMP V2C Community

Hello all,

I've tried searching around the boards for this but I haven't been able to find anything. I have a 7705 (Software version 6.2R1) and I'm trying to set up a read only SNMP V2C community so that I can keep an eye on the 7705's we have on our network. I've tried the below command (got it from documentation, and the good ol' community ?) I feel like there's something simple that I'm missing but I just can't figure out what. If anyone could offer advice or point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it.

config>system>security>snmp# community testtest hash2 r version v2c
(not the real community for obvious reasons)
and I get the following error message:
MINOR: CLI Encrypted community string validation failed.

Thank you in advance,

You need to leave out "hash2".

"testtest" is the actual community you are adding, entered in cleartext, not the encrypted (hashed) version.
