Dell recommends that you use one of the "ro" communities to set up your trap community and trap recipients IP address. Also, the administrator of the switch may want to rename the default communities to a unique secure name. The resident SNMP manage node allows remote switch management via IP over Ethernet and Fibre Channel interfaces. Dell OpenManage integrates the PowerVault 51F switch through HP OpenView Network Node Manager Special Edition (NNM SE) in a Microsoft® Windows NT® environment. You can use Dell OpenManage to manage this device. If you have a PowerVault 51F switch connected in your network, it will be automatically discovered as a node in the node submap of HP OpenView NNM SE. To launch the PowerVault Switch Management Application, double-click on the discovered FC-switch node to access the expanded node submap, and then double click on the Switch Management Application icon. Refer to your HP OpenView Network Node Manager Special Edition 1.5 With Dell OpenManage HIP 3.5 User's Guide for more information on Dell OpenManage. The switch's managed node supports the following: • SNMPv1 manager and SNMPv2c • Command line utilities to provide access to and control of the managed node • MIB-II system group, interface group, and SNMP group • Fabric Element MIB • Vendor-Specific MIBs • Standard Generic traps • Enterprise-Specific traps NOTES: A management platform's IP address must be configured as a trap recipient to enable discovery by that management platform. HP OpenView Network Node Manager Special Edition (NNM SE) version 3 and above have management information base (MIB) and auto discovery support for the switch. While the switch may be managed using a MIB browser, Dell recommends using the Web-based PowerVault Switch Manager or Telnet. SNMP Transports The SNMP manage node residing on the embedded processor supports UDP/IP over the Ethernet interface or any FC-IP interface (see Figure 3-1). This transport provides an immediate Plug and Play support for the switch once the IP address has been assigned. support.dell.com Managing the PowerVault 51F Switch 3-5

Managing the PowerVault 51F Switch
3-5
Dell recommends that you use one of the “ro” communities to set up your
trap community and trap recipients IP address. Also, the administrator of
the switch may want to rename the default communities to a unique secure
name.
The resident SNMP manage node allows remote switch management via IP over
Ethernet and Fibre Channel interfaces.
Dell OpenManage integrates the PowerVault 51F switch through HP OpenView Net-
work Node Manager Special Edition (NNM SE) in a Microsoft
®
Windows NT
®
environment. You can use Dell OpenManage to manage this device. If you have a
PowerVault 51F switch connected in your network, it will be automatically discovered
as a node in the node submap of HP OpenView NNM SE. To launch the PowerVault
Switch Management Application, double-click on the discovered FC-switch node to
access the expanded node submap, and then double click on the
Switch Manage-
ment Application
icon.
Refer to your
HP OpenView Network Node Manager Special Edition 1.5 With
Dell OpenManage HIP 3.5 User's Guide
for more information on Dell OpenManage.
The switch’s managed node supports the following:
•
SNMPv1 manager and SNMPv2c
•
Command line utilities to provide access to and control of the managed node
•
MIB-II system group, interface group, and SNMP group
•
Fabric Element MIB
•
Vendor-Specific MIBs
•
Standard Generic traps
•
Enterprise-Specific traps
NOTES: A management platform’s IP address must be configured as a trap recipient
to enable discovery by that management platform. HP OpenView Network Node
Manager Special Edition (NNM SE) version 3 and above have management informa-
tion base (MIB) and auto discovery support for the switch.
While the switch may be managed using a MIB browser, Dell recommends using the
Web-based PowerVault Switch Manager or Telnet.
SNMP Transports
The SNMP manage node residing on the embedded processor supports UDP/IP over
the Ethernet interface or any FC-IP interface (see Figure 3-1). This transport provides
an immediate Plug and Play support for the switch once the IP address has been
assigned.
