edge switch 2/16 service manual 1–15
General InformationI
Each remote workstation must have access to the LAN segment on which the HAFM
server is installed. Switch administrative functions are accessed through the LAN and
HAFM server. The LAN interface can be:
• Part of the customer’s public 10/100 Mbps LAN segment that provides access to
managed switches. This switch-to-HAFM server LAN connection is part of the
equipment rack installation and is required. Connection of remote workstations
through the hub is optional. This type of network configuration using one Ethernet
connection through the HAFM server is shown in Figure 1–6.
This single-Ethernet connection is supported by HP, is Open View-Storage Node
Manager (OV-SNM) compatible, and is the recommended configuration for a
typical HP installation at a customer site. LAN security is provided by restricting
password access and disabling the SNMP agent, embedded Web server interface,
and command line interface (telnet access) for each managed switch.
NOTE: The Ethernet adapter in the HAFM server provides an auto-detecting 10/100 Mbps
connection. Depending on speed restrictions imposed by other LAN-attached devices, the LAN
segment that connects the HAFM server to manage directors and switches operates at either
ten or 100 Mbps.
