Configuring protocol settings in HP SIM

You can use HP SIM to set protocol settings for all systems, for a group of systems, or for an
individual system. You can control the way HP SIM uses these protocols, such as configuring default
timeouts and retries, or disabling HP SIM's use of the protocol entirely.
To set protocol settings for all systems, access the Global Protocol Settings page in one of the
following ways:

Select Options

→Protocol Settings→Global Protocol Settings.

From the Discovery page, click Configure global protocol settings in the Discovery configuration
section.

Setting protocol settings for a single system or group of systems, access the System Protocol Settings
page in one of the following ways:

From the All Systems page, click the System Name link of the system to go to the System Page
for that system, and then click the System Protocol Settings link on the Tools & Links tab page.

From the HP SIM menu, select Options

→Protocol Settings→System Protocol Settings, and then

select the single system to set its protocol settings.
