Enabling SNMP Management Access
The switch can be configured to accept management commands from
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) applications such as HP
OpenView. You can configure the switch to (1) respond to SNMP requests
or (2) generate SNMP traps.
When SNMP management stations send requests to the switch (either to
return information or to set a parameter), the switch provides the
requested data or sets the specified parameter. The switch can also be
configured to send information to SNMP managers (without being
requested by the managers) through trap messages, which inform the
manager that certain events have occurred.
The switch includes an SNMP agent that supports SNMP version 1, 2c,
and 3 clients. To provide management access for version 1 or 2c clients,
you must specify a community string. The switch provides a default MIB
View (i.e., an SNMPv3 construct) for the default “public” community
