SNMP Defaults

If more than one SAN is being monitored, the SNMP polling parameters, as
well as Community Names, can be set simultaneously for all networks under
management.
Figure 2-19. Global SNMP Parameter settings
There are three SNMP polling parameters that can be set globally with this
window.
Polling Rate - The poll rate establishes how frequently you want HMU
to poll the network for status. The default is 0.5 or half a second. The
Poll Rate should be in the range 500ms-1 hour.
Timeout Period - When HMU issues a request to a managed device, it
waits for a specified number of milliseconds and then retries for a
specified number of retries before reporting a lack of connection if there
is no response. The default is 20,000 (20 seconds). The Timeout should
be in the range of 5,000-30,000ms.
Retry Count - This is the number of retries mentioned above. The
default is 3. The number of retries should be in the range of 2-10.
Community Names can also be set globally with this window. Enter the names
and click Set.
IMPORTANT: Compaq Community Names are case-sensitive and limited to 15
characters.
