Adding SNMP traps Verify that SNMP is enabled, which it is by default. The DL320s (NSM 2120) always has SNMP enabled. You add a Trap Community String, which is used for client-side authentication, and trap recipients. 1. In the navigation window, log in to the management group. 2. In the tree, select Events > SNMP. 3. Click SNMP Tasks and select Edit SNMP Traps Settings. 4. Enter the Trap Community String. The trap community string does not have to be the same as the community string used for access control, but it can be. 5. Click Add to add trap recipients. 6. Enter the IP address or host name for the SNMP client that is receiving the traps. For HP remote support, add the CMS for HP Insight Remote Support. 7. Select the Trap Version. Version 1 is required for HP remote support. 8. Click OK. 9. Repeat Step 5 through Step 8 for each trap recipient. 10. Click OK on the Edit SNMP Traps window when you are finished adding hosts. Editing trap recipients 1. Log in to the storage system and expand the tree. 2. In the navigation window, log in to the management group. 3. In the tree, select Events > SNMP. 4. Click SNMP Tasks, and select Edit SNMP Traps Settings. 5. Select one of the Trap Recipients, and click Edit. 6. Change the information as needed. Trap Version 1 is required for HP remote support. 7. Click OK. 8. Click OK when you are finished editing trap recipients. Removing trap recipients 1. In the navigation window, log in to the management group. 2. In the tree, select Events > SNMP. 3. Click SNMP Tasks, and select Edit SNMP Traps Settings. 4. Select one of the Trap Recipients, and click Remove. The host is removed from the list. 5. Click OK on the SNMP Traps tab when you are finished removing trap recipients. P4000 SAN Solution user guide 133
