Figure 8–4: Configure - SMS and NMS Page
Additional Configuration Requirements
To communicate to the SMS, you may need to configure firewall rules on the X family device such that
the following protocols are allowed between the device and the zone where the SMS resides:
HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol, Secure) — Protocol for handling secure transactions
SNMP (Simple Management Network Protocol) — Protocol for managing nodes on an IP network
and monitoring various types of equipment including computers, routers, and wiring hubs
NMS (Network Management System) — Protocol for monitoring the device by a restricted NMS,
such as HP OpenView
For more information about configuring the firewall, see
Firewall” on page 63.
Configure SMS Information
STEP 1
From the LSM menu, select System > Configuration > SMS/NMS.
STEP 2
Type an SMS Authorized IP Address/CIDR.
The default value is Any which means that any SMS can manage the device. To specify a range
of IP addresses, enter an IP address block (10.100.230.0/24, for example). This allows any
SMS on the specified IP subnet to manage the device.
STEP 3
Verify that the SNMP V2:Enabled check box is selected.
CAUTION Communication between the X family device and the SMS or NMS is managed
by the SNMP server which provides access to interface counters and other statistics,
configuration data, and general system information via the Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP). You enable the SNMP server by selecting the SNMP V2 option during the
SMS/NMS configuration process. If you disable this option, SMS and NMS functionality is
also disabled.
