Configuring network protocols

On the Network Protocols page, you can perform the following functions:

Configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

v

Configure Domain Name System (DNS)

v

Configure Telnet Protocol

v

Configure Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)

v

Configure Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

Changes to the network protocol settings require that the IMM be restarted for the
changes to take effect. If you are changing more than one protocol, you can wait
until all of the protocol changes have been made and saved before you restart the
IMM.

Configuring SNMP

You can use the SNMP agent to collect information and to control the server. The
IMM can also be configured to send SNMP alerts to the configured host names or
IP addresses.

Notes:

1.

The IMM provides two Management Information Base (MIB) files for use with
SNMP applications. The MIB files are included in the IMM firmware update
packages.

2.

IMM supports the SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 standards.

To configure SNMP, complete the following steps:

1.

Log in to the IMM where you want to configure SNMP. For more information,
see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the IMM Web interface,” on page 9.

2.

In the navigation pane, click Network Protocols.

3.

SNMPv3 manager and SNMPv3 agent to work correctly. You can
configure these settings at the bottom of the individual login profile
settings on the Login Profiles page (see “Creating a login profile” on
page 20
for more information). Click the link for the login profile to
configure, scroll to the bottom of the page and then click the Configure
SNMPv3 User
