• In-Band-Using PCIe Host Bus Interface
In-band interface refers to management of the SNMP data of
12Gb/s SAS controllers from a PCIe host bus. In-band interface
is simpler than out-of-band interface for it requires less hard-
ware in its configuration. Since the 12 Gb/s SAS RAID controller
is already installed in the host system, no extra connection is
necessary. Just load the necessary in-band Areca SNMP extension
agent for the controllers. Before launching the SNMP agent in
the sever, you need first to enable the firmware-embedded SNMP
community configuration and install Areca SNMP extension agent
in your server system. If you need additional information about
installation and start-up the function, see the SNMP Operation &
Installation section in the Appendix D of the user manual.
