These utilities enable communication between an entire network of devices
with a single Ethernet connection and one Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) management station (see the section, "Simple Network
Management Protocol"). The interactions are accomplished using the Inter-
Hub Communication Interface, an out-of-band management protocol
transmitted over the Fibre Channel cables. Information gathered in this process
