SNMP Agent
This is for network managers and system administrators who will
use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to manage their
ATM networks. The ATM Management Information Base (MIB) was
created from the ATM Forum UNI 3.1 ILMI MIB specifications. It
does not support RFC 1695. The ILMI MIB uses the ASN.1 format
which allows you to compile ATM driver modules into your
required network management station.
If you are using HP OpenView or SunNet Manager to manage your
network, install the MIBs on the computer that will operate as the
management station for the ATM network, see HP OpenView or IBM
NetView 6000 and SunNet Manager on page B-17. Once this station is
set up, other Windows NT computers communicate with it through
the Windows NT SNMP Service.
This Windows SNMP Service must be configured on each Windows
NT computer in the ATM network; see Windows NT documentation
for setting up Windows NT SNMP Service. If you have SNMP
Service set up before you install ATM drivers, the SNMP agent is
configured during ATM driver installation. If you set up SNMP
Service after installing ATM drivers, reconfigure the computer by
following these steps:
1
Select the Control Panel icon in the Main program group.
2
Select the Network icon.
3
Select the Adaptec ATM Adapter under Installed Adapter
Cards. Then select Configure.
HP OpenView or IBM NetView 6000
To compile the MIB for use in HP OpenView or IBM NetView 6000
Network Management, follow these instructions (Adaptec has
confirmed that HP OpenView 3.31 and IBM NetView 6000 running
on SunOS 4.1.3 operates with our ATM drivers):
1
From the Control pull-down menu, select SNMP Manager.
2
Select Management Database.
3
Select ilmi.hpov.mib in the
\etc\opt\adptaatm\bin

the directory where your ATM software is installed).
