SNMP
You can use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remote
monitoring of the StorPoint CD.
General Information
SNMP refers to a set of standards for network management, including a
protocol, a database structure specification, and a set of data objects. The
StorPoint CD SNMP implementation runs in the TCP/IP environment.
The management is handled by NMS (Network Management System) software
running on a host on your network. The NMS software communicates with
network devices by the means of messages, which are references to one or more
objects.
A message can be a question or an instruction to a device, or an alarm triggered
by a specific event in a device. Objects are contained in data bases called MIBs
(Management Information Base), where MIB-II is a standard database.
The StorPoint CD supports all relevant parts of MIB-II. It also includes a
private enterprise MIB, the AXIS MIB, which is described below.
System Requirements
In order to make full use of the SNMP support, you will need an NMS software
that allows you to install private enterprise MIBs.
