5.5.6 SNMP Configuration
The SNMP gives users independence from the proprietary network management schemes
of some manufacturers and SNMP is supported by many WAN and LAN manufacturers
enabling true LAN/ WAN management integration.
To set the SNMP function, move the cursor to the main menu and click on the
SNMP Configuration link. The RAID subsystem’s SNMP Configurations screen
will be shown. Select the desired function and set the preferred option.
SNMP Trap Configurations: Type in the SNMP Trap IP Address box the IP address of
the host system where SNMP traps will be sent. The SNMP Port is set to 162 by default.
SNMP System Configuration:
Community: Type the SNMP community. The default is public.
(1) sysContact.0 , (2) sysLocation.0 , and (3) sysName.0 : SNMP parameter (31
bytes max). If these 3 categories are configured and when an event occurs, SNMP
will send out a message that includes the 3 categories within the message. This
allows user to easily define which RAID unit is having problem.
SNMP Trap Notification Configurations: Select the desired option.
After completing the settings, tick on the Confirm The Operation and click on the
Submit button to save the configuration.
SNMP also works in the same way as Alert By Mail when sending event notifications.
