Figure 2: Product management options
Besides the HAFM and Element Managers on the HAFM appliance, out-of-band
(non-Fibre Channel) management access to HP directors and switches is provided
through the following:
■
Management using simple network management protocol (SNMP). An
SNMP agent is implemented through the HAFM application, which 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 twelve SNMP workstations functioning as SNMP
trap message recipients.
■
Management through the Internet using the Embedded Web Server (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 Element Manager in
HAFM. 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.
