MAP address

This is the hierarchical graph of the UFiTs contained in the MAP’s AdminDomain. Each instance

space

starting at the AdminDomain is a node in the graph. Each supported association forms a link

 

in the graph to another instance node, and so on, until a terminating instance node is

 

encountered.

Media Access

Worldwide unique, 48-bit, hardware address number that is programmed in to each local area

Control (MAC)

network interface card (NIC) at the time of manufacture. In the Ethernet standard, every network

 

connection must support a unique MAC value.

N

 

Network

An internal circuit board or card that connects a workstation or server to a networked device.

Interface Card

 

(NIC)

 

Network mask

A number used by software to separate a local subnet address from the rest of an Internet

 

Protocol (IP) address.

Node

An addressable point or device on a network. A node can connect a computing system, a

 

terminal, or various peripheral devices to the network.

O

 

Onboard

The Onboard Administrator (OA) is the enclosure management processor, subsystem, and

Administrator

firmware base used to support HP Integrity server blades and all the managed devices contained

 

within the enclosure. The OA provides a single point from which to perform basic management

 

tasks on server blades or switches within the enclosure. Utilizing this hardwired information,

 

OA performs initial configuration steps for the enclosure, allows for run time management and

 

configuration of enclosure components, and informs administrators about problems within the

 

enclosure through e-mail, SNMP, or the Insight Display.

Options

Used in the SMASH SM CLP. Options control verb behavior.

Out-of-band

Server management capability that is enabled when the operating system network drivers or

System

the server are not functioning properly.

Management

 

P

 

Port

The location (socket) where Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) connections

 

are made. Web servers traditionally use port 80, the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) uses port 21,

 

and telnet uses port 23. A port enables a client program to specify a particular server program

 

in a computer on a network. When a server program is started initially, it binds to its designated

 

port number. Any client that wants to use that server must send a request to bind to the

 

designated port number.

Port Number

A number that specifies an individual Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)

 

application on a host machine, providing a destination for transmitted data.

POST

Power-On Self-Test. The series of steps that the host system CPU performs following power-on.

 

Steps include testing memory, initializing peripherals, and executing option ROMs. Following

 

POST, the host ROM passes control to the installed operating system.

Properties

Properties are attributes that are relevant to a target that are passed as parameters to the

 

command. Property keywords map to properties of CIM class.

Protocol

A set of rules that describes how systems or devices on a network exchange information.

Proxy

A mechanism whereby one system acts on behalf of another system in responding to protocol

 

requests.

R

 

Remote System

A system other than the one on which the user is working.
