SNMP Agent
Select this option to display the Configure SNMP dialog box. Use this dialog box to
configure network addresses and community names for up to six SNMP trap
recipients. Also authorize write permissions to enable SNMP management stations to
modify writable MIB variables. In addition, you can enable authorization traps to be
sent to management stations when unauthorized stations request access to director
SNMP data.

key to enable optional features that you have purchased for the director.

Date/Time
Select this option to display the Configure Date and Time dialog box. Use this option to
set the current date and time in the director. When the Periodic Date/Time
Synchronization check box is checked, the Date and Time fields are greyed out
(disabled), and the HP EFC server date and time periodically synchronizes the director
date and time. If the Periodic Date/Time Synchronization check box is not checked,
you can set the date and time in the dialog box fields manually.

Threshold Alert( s)
Select this option to configure threshold alerts for ports. A threshold alert notifies
users when the transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) throughput reaches specified values for
specific director ports or port types (E_Ports or F_Ports). Using this option, you can
configure:
– A name for the alert.
– A threshold type for the alert (Rx, Tx, or either).
– Active or inactive state of the alert.
Threshold criteria. This includes configuring the threshold as the percent of port traffic
capacity utilized (% utilization), the time interval for measuring throughput and
sending notification, and the amount of cumulative minutes that the % utilization
should exist before an alert is generated.
