To discover the proxy:
1. Click Tools > Storage Essentials > Home on the HP SIM home page menu. The Storage

home page, click Discovery, then click Setup in the upper-right pane of the Storage
Essentials
window.
2. Select Step 1 at the top of the page.

discover.

Manager or Connectrix Manager. The default community-string is "public" but this can be
changed on the EFC Manager or Connectrix Manager.
7. Leave the Password (Optional) field blank. The password does not matter since the
management server is not doing any configurations through SNMP.
8. You can leave the Verify Password field blank.

typed into this field is displayed under the Comment column in the Addresses to Discover list
