Configuring SNMP
Settings on the Library
5
SNMP is a light-weight protocol designed for remote management and
monitoring of infrastructure devices. The library provides SNMP
support, so an external management application can be configured to
receive library SNMP information. The library supports SNMP by
publishing a Management Information Base (MIB) that can be queried to
obtain the status of the library and many of its individual components.
SNMP information can be obtained from the library using SNMP Traps
and GET queries.
For more information about SNMP, see the Dell PowerVault ML6000 Basic
SNMP Reference Guide. For information on integrating MIBs with an
SNMP management application, contact your network management
application vendor.
Administrators can perform the following SNMP procedures:
• Register the IP addresses and port numbers of external management
applications, enabling them to receive SNMP traps from the library.
For more information, see Registering External Management
Applications on page 67.
• Enable or disable support for SNMP v1 and v2c. SNMP v3 is enabled
by default and cannot be disabled. For more information, see
Enabling SNMP Versions on page 68.
Note:
Before enabling SSL settings, make sure you enter a name for
the library in the
