Physical Planning Considerations SNMP Management Workstations An SNMP agent that runs on the HAFM server can be configured through the HAFM application. This agent implements Version 3.1 of the Fibre Alliance management information base (MIB). The agent can be configured to send SNMP trap messages to up to 12 recipients. In addition, there is a separate SNMP agent that runs on each director or switch that is configured through the Product Manager application. This agent implements the following MIBs: ■ The Fibre Channel Fabric Element MIB (Version 3.1). ■ A subset of the standard transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP) MIB-II definition (RFC1213). ■ The director or switch-specific private enterprise MIB. The director or switch SNMP agent can be configured to send trap messages to up to six recipients. SNMP management is only intended for product monitoring; therefore, the default state of all MIB variables is read-only. When installed on a customer intranet, workstations communicate with directors and switches through the HAFM server. Web Browser Access The Embedded Web Server interface provides a graphical user interface (GUI) accessed through the Internet (locally or remotely) to manage a single director or switch. If the Embedded Web Server interface is to be implemented: ■ Plan for an Internet connection to the LAN segment on which the product is installed. The LAN connection is provided through the customer's intranet. ■ Ensure adequate security measures are implemented to preclude unauthorized access to managed products. Ensure IP addresses (uniform resource locators [URLs] for Internet access) of managed products, usernames, and passwords are tightly controlled. 128 SAN High Availability Planning Guide
