server, regardless of which operating system (Microsoft Windows* or Linux*) you are running on
either system. Start the telnet session to the remote server as follows:
At the operating system command prompt, type
telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 623 <Enter>
The xxx represent the IP address of the system running the Network Proxy. This may be a central
network server with the Proxy installed. If you are connecting to the local system, use “localhost”
instead of the system’s IP Address. The 623 represents the default Port address required for Intel
®
Command Line Interface connections. If this port address has been changed while executing the
dpcproxy command, use that port address. For example: telnet 10.7.162.58 623 or telnet
localhost 623
At the “Server:” prompt, provide the IP Address or DNS Name of the server to which you want
to connect.
Provide the BMC username and password for the target system.
After authentication is performed, you will see a login successful message and the dpccli> prompt
(even over telnet, Intel

SNMP subagent
Intel
®
SNMP Subagents are SNMP extension agents that provide interfaces and databases for retrieving
server hardware information and for monitoring server health status on the network using the
SNMP protocol.
The Management Information Base (MIB) file that accompanies each SNMP subagent contains the
definitions of the management information the SNMP subagent can access, with each definition
distinguished by a unique object identifier (OID). Each SNMP subagent has its own MIB file and OID.
The SNMP subagents support SNMP-based access (GETs, SETs and TRAPs) to the instrumented
components on the managed server, collecting and returning information as requested by a
management system.
The subagents plug into the SNMP Master Agent infrastructure supported by the operating system and
respond to queries and sets filtered to the subagents by the master agent, based on the OID specifying
the data defined in the MIB to be retrieved or set.
4.5.5.1 SNMP Master Agent
You must install the SNMP Master Agent on the managed server.
For supported Linux* operating systems, use the net-snmp package.
For supported Microsoft Windows* operating systems, use the SNMP Service included in the
