Next, ensure that the following parameters are defined:
ParametersDescriptions
GRF IP addressThe IP address for the GRF administrative Ethernet.
GRF netmaskThe Netmask for the GRF administrative Ethernet.
GRF Default routeThe default route of the GRF.
SNMP community nameThis attribute describes the SNMP community name that the SP Extension Node SNMP Manager and the GRF’s SNMP Agent will send in the corresponding field of the SNMP messages. This value must match the value specified for the same attribute of the corresponding dependent node definition on the SP system. If left blank, a default name found in the SP Switch Router Adapter documentation is used.
CWS IP addressThe Control Workstation’s IP address. When a GRF contains multiple SP Switch router adapters that are managed by different SNMP managers on different RS/6000 SP CWS, each of the Control Workstation IP addresses should be defined along with a different community name for each Control Workstation.
DNSThe DNS server and domain name, if used.
SP Extension Node SNMP
Manager port #The SNMP port number used by the SP Extension Node SNMP Manager to communicate with the SNMP agent on the GRF.
This port number is 162 when the SP Extension Node SNMP Manager is the only SNMP manager on the Control Workstation. Otherwise, another port number not used in the /etc/services of the Control Workstation is chosen.
