SIM and firewall

[Mikael_17]

Hi

I need information about using HP SIM server on one side of a firewall and HP servers to monitor on the other side of the firewall.

Where can i read about this?

is the document you are looking for.


http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/hpsim/infolibrary.html has a bunch of SIM specific documents.

Good luck !

If your servers all have ILO's and you do not want to open the SNMP Ports on your firewall, then try using the SNMP Passthrough feature on the ILO.

Connect the ILO to your internal Network
Enable the SNMP Passthrough on ILO.
Set ILO trap destination to the SIM server.
Set Server SNMP to trap to itself.

you will then get the alerts on the SIM console.

This procedure is in the doc mentioned above.

regards,
Martin
