Configuring for Network Management Applications

Using SNMP Tools To Manage the Switch

SNMP Management Features

SNMP management features on the switch include:

■ SNMP version 1, version 2c or version 3 over IP

■ Security via configuration of SNMP communities (page 14-3)

■ Security via authentication and privacy for SNMP Version 3 access

■ Event reporting via SNMP

• Version 1 traps

• RMON: groups 1, 2, 3, and 9

■ HP ProCurve Manager/Plus support

■ Flow sampling using either EASE or sFlow

■ Standard MIBs, such as the Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), Ethernet MAU MIB

(RFC 1515), and others.

The switch SNMP agent also uses certain variables that are included in a

Hewlett-Packard proprietary MIB (Management Information Base) file. If you

are using HP OpenView, you can ensure that it is using the latest version of

the MIB file by downloading the file to the OpenView database. To do so, go

to the HP ProCurve website at:

http://www.hp.com/go/hpprocurve

Click on software updates, then MIBs.

Configuring for SNMP Access to the Switch

SNMP access requires an IP address and subnet mask configured on the

switch. (See

“IP Configuration” on page 8-3.) If you are using DHCP/Bootp to

configure the switch, ensure that the DHCP/Bootp process provides the IP

address. (See

“DHCP/Bootp Operation” on page 8-13.)

Once an IP address has been configured, the main steps for configuring SNMP

version 1 and version 2c access management features are:

1. Configure the appropriate SNMP communities. (Refer to “SNMPv3 Com-

munities” on page 14-11.)

2. Configure the appropriate trap receivers. (Refer to “SNMP Notification

and Traps” on page 14-17.)

In some networks, authorized IP manager addresses are not used. In this case,

all management stations using the correct community name may access the

switch with the View and Access levels that have been set for that community.
