6.2.13 Viewing or Changing Advanced Settings (Advanced Settings Tab)
The System Administration View provides an Advanced Settings tab that lets you view or
change advanced system and network administration settings, including E-mail and Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap notification settings. Figure 6-18 shows the
advanced settings tab and Table 6-4 describes the settings. A
Send Test Alert Notification
button at the bottom of the advanced settings tab allows you to verify your E-mail and/or
SNMP configuration settings, if either or both of those items have been enabled.
When using SNMP Traps with a third-party framework management application, you may
need to install the storage system’s MIB into that package. The MIB file is available on the
Product CD that came with your storage array, or it can be downloaded from D-Link’s
website.
To change an advanced setting:
1. In the System Administration View, click the Advanced Settings tab.
The Advanced Settings in Figure 6-18 appear.
2. In the Value column, perform one of the following steps:
–
If the value is selected from a drop-down list, click in the field and select the
desired value.
–
If the value is entered in the field, double-click in the field and enter the desired
value.
3. Click Apply .
4. If you have specified E-mail and/or SNMP notification settings, you can verify those
settings by clicking the
Send Test Alert Notification button at the bottom of this dialog
to generate a test e-mail message and/or a test SNMP trap. In neither of those
mechanisms has been enabled, clicking on the
Send Test Alert Notification button will
have no effect.
Some of these settings are for expert users who understand advanced
networking concepts and terminology, and should only be modified when
specifically directed to do so.
