Using the Element Manager
1-45
General Information
— Event log entries, and clear the IML LED at the front panel.
— Information about attached devices (nodes).
Operations panel -
 perform the following operations and 
maintenance tasks:
— Enable port beaconing and perform port diagnostics (internal 
and external loopback tests).
— Reset Fibre Channel ports.
— Set the switch online state.
— Upgrade switch firmware.
General tasks performed through the SANpilot interface are similar 
in form and function to tasks performed through the EFC Manager 
and Element Manager applications, and are therefore not 
documented in this publication. For task information and 
descriptions, open the online user documentation (Help selection) 
that supports the interface.
This publication provides instructions for switch installation and 
fault isolation using the SANpilot interface. Refer to 
 for installation and configuration tasks. Refer to 
 for fault isolation tasks.
SNMP Trap Message 
Support
Unsolicited SNMP trap messages that indicate switch operational 
state changes or failure conditions can be customer-configured to be 
transmitted to up to 12 management workstations. If installed on a 
dedicated Ethernet LAN, the workstations communicate directly 
with each switch. If installed on a customer intranet, the workstations 
communicate with switches through the management server.
SNMP data and trap messages are defined in the Fibre Channel 
FE-MIB definition, a subset of the TCP/IP MIB-II definition (RFC 
1213), and a custom, switch-specific MIB. Customers can install these 
MIBs (in standard ASN.1 format) on any SNMP management 
workstation. 
Although SNMP trap messages are typically transmitted to customer 
personnel only, the messages may be provided to service personnel as 
initial notification of a switch problem or as information included in 
the fault isolation process. Generic SNMP traps include:
coldStart -
 reports that the SNMP agent is reinitializing due to a 
switch reset.
