The
front panel
provides EMS information on system activity through the activity indicators (LEDs).
These LEDs provide information on status of power, EMS bus, processor activity, current video
and group select, and fans.
You may interact with the EMS Module through the control buttons for GROUP POWER, BC
RESET, BC GROUP select and VIDEO SELECT, as well as the Key Lock.
SNMP I
NTERFACE
You can configure EMS as an SNMP Agent. As an SNMP agent, EMS will send out all information
gathered on the groups in response to SNMP GET and GET_NEXT commands. EMS will then send
out alarms and acknowledgments through SNMP TRAPs. As administrator, you can carry out
resets and commands through SNMP SETs.
In order to utilize this interface to EMS, you must have the Novell TCP/IP stack installed on EMS.
You must also customize the EMS module to accommodate SNMP, as well as import the enterprise
MIBs (cbxbc.mib and cbxies.mib) to the network’s SNMP Manager. Refer to
SNMP Agent Support
for more information.
