Firmware Enhancements (HP 28688B and HP 28699A
Only)
Hewlett-Packard continually tests and improves its products. When firmware
enhancements are made to the HP 28688B and HP 28699A hubs, you will be able to easily
update them with the new code. The update can be made from a PC attached to the hub’s
console port (directly or through a modem), or the hub’s new code can be downloaded over
the network. The update procedures are described in documents that come with the new
code.
The firmware, called the agent code, enables a managed device to respond to requests for
data from the HP OpenView Network Management station.
Contact your HP-authorized LAN dealer or local HP sales office for the latest on firmware
enhancements to the HP 28688B and HP 28699A hubs.
Network Management (HP 28688B and HP 28699A Only)
The agent code firmware on the HP EtherTwist Hub Plus and Hub Plus/48 allows them to
be managed remotely by any network management product that complies with the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) standard. HP offers SNMP-compliant network
management products; both DOS-based and UNIX-based versions are available. These
products use a windows interface to:
manage multiple HP hubs and other HP network devices
automatically generate a graphic display of the network map
gather network traffic statistics
configure ports
run tests of the hub
test network links to other devices
Note
The functionality provided by HP network management products is
improved on a regular basis. For more information on the capabilities of
these products, contact your HP-authorized LAN dealer or local HP sales
office.
