ATTO Technology Inc. iPBridge Installation and Operation Manual
3 Remote system monitoring
You may set up the iPBridge to send notifications when certain events occur.
Use the Remote Management page of the
ExpressNAV interface to send information about
the operation of the iPBridge from the bridge.
CLI commands may be used to set up remote
monitoring. Refer to
Diagnostic commands on
page 43.
You may designate the person receiving
notification of conditions and the level of severity
which prompt notification. For example a
recipient with a critical severity level only
receives critical messages and not warning
messages.
Remote system monitoring is also available using
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
An agent resides in the iPBridge which takes
information from the iPBridge and translates it
into a form compatible with SNMP. If certain
conditions arise, the agent sends notifications
(traps) to a client.
The severity level can be
all, warning , critical
or none .
• All means warnings, critical events and
informational messages are sent.
• Critical means only critical event notifications
are sent.
• Warning means only warnings and critical event
notifications are sent.
• None means no notification is sent.
Refer to Diagnostic commands on page 43 for
detailed information on the commands which
regulate SNMP on the iPBridge.
Contact your network administrator for the MIB
software and appropriate MIB file for your
iPBridge.
Use the
Remote Management page of the
ExpressNAV interface to enable traps or extended
traps, to designate the trap recipient IP addresses,
and to indicate the severity level.
1 If you have not already, open an ExpressNAV
session. For instructions, refer to
Opening an
ExpressNAV session
on page 29.
2 Click on the Remote Management page.
3 Click on the enable button in the Traps or
Extended Traps line.
4 Enter the Trap Recipient IP addresses .
5 From the drop-down box next to each trap
address, select the level of severity for which
you want each address to be notified.
6 Press Submit.
After rebooting, the iPBridge sends notifications
as you set them up.
