Configuring the SNMP agent

This section provides information to help you use the SNMP agent module.

Setting up the SNMP agent

The SNMP agent module implements the objects defined in the Fibre Channel Management
(FCMGMT) Management Information Base (MIB) 3.1 and a small number of objects defined in MIB
II. Through implementation of these MIB objects, the agent translates information stored on the
appliance into a form usable by SNMP management stations.
You can configure network addresses and community names for up to 12 SNMP trap recipients.
SNMP sends messages for specific events that occur on the appliance to trap recipients.
Figure 45 shows the dialog box used to configure the SNMP agent.
