Network Manageability
The SAN768B-2 has a single domain and is managed as a single element with
Network Advisor. The SAN768B-2 responds to its own IP address and appears as a
separate entity to the Telnet protocol and SNMP.
All management interfaces, such as Telnet, Web Tools, standards compliant SMI-S,
and Management Server, support a “port N within blade M” naming scheme.
The SAN768B-2 supports SNMPv1 and SNPMv3. When SNMP devices send SNMP
messages to a management console running SAN management software, the
information is stored in a management information base (MIB). Fabric OS 7.0 and
later supports the latest Fibre Alliance Fibre Channel Management (FCMGMT) and
Storage Management Initiative (SMI) MIBs, which allow common information
necessary for management software to provide information to a SAN
administrator. Refer to the
Fabric OS MIB Reference for additional MIB information.
