SNMP Management Session
You can also remotely manage the Converteon™ chassis using an Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management program such as
HP Openview. This method, however, does not use the management
interface.
If you intend to manage the chassis from a management workstation using
an SNMP management program, you need to load the following
Management Information Base (MIB) file onto the management
workstation. (The MIB file is available from the Allied Telesis web site.)
ˆ ATCV5000.mib
This requires that you use a MIB compiler to compile the file. A familiarity
with MIB objects is necessary for this type of management. To load the
MIB file onto a management workstation, follow the instructions included
with your MIB compiler. For instructions on how to compile the MIB file
with your SNMP program, refer to your SNMP management
documentation.
To establish a SNMP management session for any Converteon™ chassis
that is remotely managed, the chassis must have a management card and
an IP address. Before performing the SNMP management session, note
the followings:
ˆ The 10/100Base-TX port on the management card must be connected
to the network.
ˆ The remote management workstation must reach the chassis through
the subnet of the management card.
