Installing 3WXM 21
On each switch in the network plan, you must enable notifications and configure 3WXM Services as a notification target (trap receiver).
3WXM Services does not start listening for SNMP notifications from switches until you save the network plan.
From the Key Store area of the window, specify security settings.
From the Access Control area, define user accounts. For more information about access control, see “3WXM Access Control” on page 21.
By default, a username and password are not required to access 3WXM Services from 3WXM client, but only local connections (connections from client to server on the same host) are allowed. To change these settings, use the Service Settings tab of the 3WXM Services Setup dialog.
To select monitoring settings:
All monitoring options are enabled by default. You do not need to enable them and you do not need to specify the switches you want to monitor. However, for 3WXM Services to receive trap data from WX switches, SNMP notifications must be enabled on the switches. (See “Deploy Your Configuration” on page 144.)
To start gathering data for monitoring, deploy your configuration to the network. For information about deploying your configuration, see “Deploy Your Configuration” on page 144.
