12Simple Network Management Protocol Configuration; Managing The Snmp Service - HP StorageWorks SN6000 Command Line Interface Manual

12 Simple Network Management Protocol Configuration
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) provides for the management of the switch through
third-party applications that use SNMP. Security consists of a ReadCommunity string and a
WriteCommunity string that serve as passwords that control read and write access to the switch. These
strings are set at the factory to well-known defaults and should be changed if SNMP is to be enabled. The
switch supports SNMP version 3 in the CLI, which is disabled by default.

Managing the SNMP service

You control the SNMP service SNMPEnabled parameters through the set setup snmp or
set setup services commands. See
To enable SNMP, enter the set setup services command, as shown in the following example:
SN6000 FC Switch #> admin start
SN6000 FC Switch (admin) #> set setup services
A list of attributes with formatting and current values will follow.
Enter a new value or simply press the ENTER key to accept the current value.
If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the list
press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so.
PLEASE NOTE:
-----------
* Further configuration may be required after enabling a service.
* If services are disabled, the connection to the switch may be lost.
* When enabling SSL, please verify that the date/time settings
on this switch and the workstation from where the SSL connection
will be started match, and then a new certificate may need to be
created to ensure a secure connection to this switch.
