SNMP Trap Destinations
SNMP trap destination table
Destination
User-designated name for the trap destination. The Destination name must be
unique.
IP Address
IPv4 address for the trap destination. DNS name is not supported.
Community String
The Community String acts like a password for a given trap destination. The
trap-receiving application can use the community string to filter the incoming traps.
Default: public
Format

SMI-S overview
The SMI-S was created by SNIA to standardize storage management solutions. SMI-S replaces multiple
disparate managed object models, protocols, and transports with a single object-oriented model for each
type of component in a storage network. SMI-S enables management applications (such as HP SIM) to
support storage devices from multiple vendors quickly and reliably because they are no longer proprietary.
SMI-S detects and manages storage elements by type, not by vendor.
You must have storage or domain user role permissions to configure SMI-S capabilities.
The ability to enable or disable SMI-S is not available on the HP VC 8Gb 24-Port FC module.
