Product Management Product Management Out-of-band (non-Fibre Channel) management access to HP products is provided through two Ethernet LAN connections to director control processor (CTP) cards or a single connection to a director front panel. The following out-of-band management access methods are provided: ■ Management through the HAFM application. The HAFM application includes the Director 2/64 Product Manager, Edge Switch 2/16 Product Manager, and Edge Switch 2/32 Product Manager applications. This GUI resides on the HAFM server and provides a single point of management for all directors and switches. Refer to "Product Software" on page 47 for information about these applications. Operators at remote workstations can connect to the HAFM server through the local HAFM application and associated Product Manager applications to manage and monitor directors and switches controlled by the HAFM server. A maximum of nine concurrent users (including a local user) can log in to the HAFM application. Refer to "Remote User Workstations" on page 124 for information. ■ Management using simple network management protocol (SNMP). An SNMP agent is implemented through the HAFM application that allows administrators on SNMP management workstations to access product management information using any standard network management tool. Administrators can assign Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and corresponding community names for up to six SNMP workstations functioning as SNMP trap message recipients. Refer to "SNMP Management Workstations" on page 128 for information. ■ Management through the Internet using the EWS interface installed on the director or switch. This interface supports configuration, statistics monitoring, and basic operation of the product, but does not offer all the capabilities of the corresponding Product Manager application. Administrators launch the Web server interface from a remote PC by entering the product's IP address as the Internet uniform resource locator (URL), then entering a user name and password at a login screen. The PC browser then becomes a management console. ■ Management through a PC-based Telnet session using the CLI. Any platform that supports Telnet client software can be used. 38 SAN High Availability Planning Guide
