4.Return to the Advanced page.

5.Paste the copied text into the Custom Properties field. How you paste the text depends on your Web browser. If you are using Microsoft Explorer or Netscape Navigator, right-click the field and select Paste.

6.Set the cimom.snmpTrapListenerPort to another port, as shown in the following example:

cimom.snmpTrapListenerPort=1234

where 1234 is the new port

7.When you are done making your changes, click Save.

8.Restart the service for the management server for your changes to take effect.

While AppStorManager is restarting, users are not able to access the management server. The AppStorManager service must be running for the management server to monitor elements.

Step 4 - Set Up the Proxy to Send Traps to the Correct Port

IMPORTANT: The management server uses the Windows SNMP trap service when Discovery from HP SIM is used.

When you are using the SNMP setting to discover a proxy, you must configure the SNMP agent on the proxy manager to send traps to the management server using the port you selected. This configuration sends traps from all switches managed by that proxy. Refer to your documentation for your proxy for more information.

Contacting a McDATA or Connectrix Switch Directly

The management server uses SNMP to discover a McDATA or Connectrix switch by its IP address or DNS name. SNMP is the default setting. If you have changed the setting for discovering switches to SWAPI, you must change it back to SNMP before you begin the following steps. See ”(Discovery from HP SE only) Changing the Discovery Settings” on page 50.

Discovery from HP SIM

To discover a McDATA or Connectrix switch directly, provide the following to HP Insight Manager:

•The IP address or system name of the switch you want to discover. See ”Adding an IP Range for Scanning” on page 23 or ”Adding a Single IP Address or DNS Name for Discovery” on page 24 for more information.

•The user name for accessing the switch. The default user name is “public” (the read-only community string).

•Password. HP SIM requires you to fill in the password field.

Discovery from HP SE

To discover a McDATA or Connectrix switch directly:

1.Click Tools > Storage Essentials > Home on the HP SIM home page menu. The Storage Essentials home page opens in a separate web browser window. From the Storage Essentials home page, click Discovery, then click Setup in the upper-right pane of the Storage Essentials window.
