Downloading the RISS MIB

The RISS MIB (management information base) allows monitoring applications such as HP OpenView to recognize SNMP events coming from the RISS system.

In the MIB Manager Service area, click the Download button to copy the RISS MIB file to your local machine. To import the MIB, refer to the documentation for your monitoring management software.

Setting the SNMP server

In the SNMP Server Monitors area, enter the IP address of the monitoring management server, then click Add Server.

You can enter more than one IP address, since the SNMP information can be broadcast to multiple servers, or receivers.

NOTE:

Always enter the IP address of the server; do not enter the hostname.

Use of a server can be enabled or disabled by clicking the radio button in front of the server entry, then clicking Toggle Enabled/Disabled.
