SNMP Operation & Definition
Overview
The Internal RAID subsystem firmware-embedded Simple Net
-
work Management Protocol (SNMP) agent for the connect array.
An SNMP-based management application (also known as an SNMP
manager) can monitor the disk array. An example of An SNMP
management application is Hewlett-Packard’s Open View. The
firmware-embedded SNMP agent ca be used to augment the RAID
controller if you are already running a SNMP management applica-
tion at your site.
SNMP Definition
SNMP, an IP-based protocol, has a set of commands for getting the
status of target devices. The SNMP management platform is called
the SNMP manager, and the managed devices have the SNMP
agent loaded. Management data is organized in a hierarchical data
structure called the management Information Base (MIB). These
MIBs are defined and sanctioned by various industry associa
-
tions. The objective is for all vendors to create products in compli-
ance with these MIBs so that inter-vendor interoperability can be
achieved. If a vendor wishes to include additional device informa-
tion that is not specified in a standard MIB, then that is usually
done through MIB extensions.
