easy-to-use platform for performing management tasks in the HiPath 3000/5000 system soft-
ware. SNMP is used as a kind of management agent in HiPath 3000/5000, making it possible
to monitor and administer LAN components (including HiPath 3000/5000 itself) from a central
location. It is possible to
●
addressing HiPath 3000/5000 via the
TCP/IP protocol family
.
●
external management applications, such as HP Open View and IBM Tivoli, to access data

●
implementing remote maintenance tasks (online port status, enabling and disabling ports,
determining free ports) (HiPath Fault Management)
●
transmit service-related Class B errors.
●
visualizing the operating status of HiPath 3000/5000 systems.
