command line interface, Network Time Protocol (NTP), Common Information Model (CIM), and Call Home. To display the System Services dialog box, select Switch > Services. Figure 30 System Services dialog box IMPORTANT: Use caution when disabling the Embedded GUI, GUI Mgmt, and Telnet, as it is possible to disable all access to the switch except through a serial connection. The following system services are available: • Embedded GUI (Graphical User Interface)-Enables users to point a browser at the switch and use the QuickTools web applet. • GUI Mgmt-Enables out-of-band management of the switch from the switch management application (GUI). If disabled, the switch can not be specified as the entry switch for a fabric in the GUI, but can still be managed through an in-band connection. • Telnet (Command line interface)-Enables users to manage the switch through a Telnet command line interface session. Disabling Telnet access to the switch is not recommended. • SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)-Enables management of the switch through third-party applications that use SNMP. • NTP (Network Time Protocol)-Enables the switch to obtain its time and date settings from an NTP server. Configuring all of your switches and your workstations to utilize NTP will keep the date/time settings in sync and will prevent difficulties with SSL certificates and event logs. • CIM (Common Information Model)-Enables management of the switch through third-party applications that use CIM. • FTP (File Transfer Protocol)-Enables file transfers to the switch using FTP. FTP is required for out-of-band firmware uploads which will complete faster than in-band Firmware uploads. • Management Server-Enables management of the switch through third-party applications that use the GS-3 Management Server. • Call Home-Enables you to configure switches and send alerts and events to email addresses or pagers. This email-based Call Home cannot be used to contact HP Services. Call Home to HP Services can be accomplished using HP Service Essentials Remote Support Pack as described in the HP StorageWorks SN6000 Fibre Channel Switch Installation and Reference Guide.
