SNMP trap configuration
The SNMP trap configuration defines how traps are set. Choose from the tabs Trap1 – Trap 5 to configure
each trap. Table 16 describes the SNMP configuration parameters.
Archiving a switch
Archiving a switch saves the current switch configuration parameters to an .XML archive file containing the
configuration parameters. Basically any data received by the application is archived. However, passwords
are not archived with the user account information. The switch can later be restored using the saved switch
configuration file. Archived parameters include switch properties and statistics, IP configuration, SNMP
configuration, port properties and statistics, alarm configuration, and zoning configuration. Archived
parameters include the following:
• Switch properties and statistics
• IP configuration
• SNMP configuration
• Port properties and statistics
• Alarm configuration
• Zoning configuration
• Configured security
• RADIUS Server information
This archive file can be used to restore the configuration on the same switch or on a replacement switch.
You can also use the archive file as a template for configuring new switches to add to a fabric. The archive
can be used later to restore the switch. Refer to ”Restoring a switch” on page 86 for more information.
To archive a switch, perform the following procedure:
1. Select Switch > Archive in the faceplate display.
2. Enter a file name in the Save dialog.
3. Click Save.
