5.3.2 Configuring SNMP
The Remote Supervisor Adapter supports the sending of alerts to IBM Director
using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
Before alerts can be sent, you need to configure the adapter for SNMP so that
IBM Director Server can discover and manage it.
Note: We assume that you have already set up a system running IBM Director
Server. If you need help configuring IBM Director, please see the
documentation that comes with IBM Director or the IBM Redbook
Implementing Systems Management Solutions using IBM Director,
SG24-6188.
Configure SNMP as follows:
1. If you have not already done so, configure the adapter so that it can be
accessed from a Web browser, either through a direct Ethernet connection or
via an ASM interconnect. See "Connecting via a Web browser" on page 179
or "Connecting via the ASM interconnect" on page 184.
2. Connect to the adapter using the Web browser. From the home page, click
Network Protocols.
3. In the SNMP section (see Figure 5-7 on page 191) enter the following
information:
SNMP agent
