Monitors HP switches in a workgroup-level SAN environment.
Differs only from fw.workgroup.errlog in that all the threshold
alarms are generated through SNMP Trap rather than Errlog.
Monitors HP switches in an enterprise backbone SAN environment.
Comparing to the workgroup profile, the enterprise backbone
profile has more stringent environment and SFP class boundaries.
However, the port related (Port, Eport, Fcuport, Fopport) classes
have doubled the High threshold boundaries. In a normal
operating switch, this enables Fabric Watch to be more tolerant to
these counter values due to the higher traffic volume through a
backbone switch.
Differs from fw.enterprise.backbone.snmp only in that all the
threshold alarms are generated through SNMP trap rather than
Errlog.
