37.5 Using Novell Remote Manager

If the POA is running on NetWare 6.5 or on Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES), you can use the
IP Address Management feature in Novell Remote Manager (Manage Server > IP Address
Management) to view the IP address and port configuration for the POA. This is also true for other
GroupWise agents (MTA, Internet Agent, and WebAccess Agent) running on NetWare 6.5/OES
servers.
IMPORTANT: If the POA is running in protected mode on NetWare, it does not display in Novell
Remote Manager.
You access Novell Remote Manager by entering the following URL in a Web browser:
http://server_address:8008
For example:
http://172.16.5.18:8008
For more information about using Novell Remote Manager, see the
Documentation Web site

37.6 Using an SNMP Management Console

You can monitor the POA from the Management and Monitoring component of Novell ZENworks
for Servers or any other SNMP management and monitoring program. When properly configured,
the POA sends SNMP traps to network management consoles for display along with other SNMP
monitored programs.
Although the POA is SNMP-enabled by default, the server where the POA is installed must be
properly configured to support SNMP, and the POA object in eDirectory must be properly
configured as well. To set up SNMP services for your server, complete the following tasks:
Section 37.6.1, "Setting Up SNMP Services for the POA," on page 555
Section 37.6.2, "Copying and Compiling the POA MIB File," on page 558
Section 37.6.3, "Configuring the POA for SNMP Monitoring," on page 559

37.6.1 Setting Up SNMP Services for the POA

Select the instructions for the platform where the POA runs:
"Setting Up SNMP Services for the NetWare POA" on page 555
"Setting Up SNMP Services for the Linux POA" on page 556
"Setting Up SNMP Services for the Windows POA" on page 557
Setting Up SNMP Services for the NetWare POA
The NetWare POA supports SNMP through the SNMP services loaded on the NetWare server.
SNMP services are provided through the SNMP NLM
requests for monitoring information and generates trap messages.
