♦Transmitting and receiving packets between NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC
ESMPRO Agent
Packets will be transmitted/received between NEC ESMPRO Manager and the Agent at the following times.
We recommend reasonable care in operating in a system which charges you for things such as connection on a WAN.
In addition, note that a large amount of data is flo wn in server management by DMI (Se t "On" for DMI Agent
displayed on a server ic on on the Op eration Window).
* Server management by DMI i s for other vendor's server cl ient on which DMI is in stalled. You do not need t
o use DMI for mana ging machines on which NEC ESM PRO Agent is inst alled.
At autodiscovery of serv ers on the Op eration Window.
At a specified interval after specifying regular autodiscovery on the Operation Window.
When deleted server where DMI age nt is checked for i ts properties on the Oper ation Window.
When DMI Agent is re gistered on the Op eration Window.
When the DMI Agent is turned OFF on t he Operation Window.
When the DMI Agent is turned ON on the Operation Window.
When Remote Wake UP is executed on the Oper ation Window.
Irregularly, after specifying inter-manager communication on the Op eration Window.
At receiving an SNMP Trap.
At receiving DMI event.
At startup of the o perating system, for al l the DMI ag ents registered at the Operati on Window.
About every one minute after DataViewer is started.
About every one minute after GraphViewer is st arted.
At a specifi ed interval for a specified server, after setting Automatic Data Collection.
Regular polling about every one m inute to monitor server status.*
* This can be avoided by turning "Watch Server S tatus" off at the Prop erties dialog box on th e Operation Win
dow's server i con. However, the se rver status will not be reflected in the color of the icon on the Operation
Window.
♦Setting an SNMP trap destination
When you install NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO Agent on th e same computer, specify the IP ad
dress assigned to the network card or th e host name as the SNMP trap destination for the computer, instead
of the loop back address 127.0.0.1. If you specify 127.0.0.1, "unknown server" may be displayed on th e Alert
Viewer.
On the other hand, you may need to specify 127.0.0.1 for a computer not connected to the network. For mor
e information, see "Settings on Standalone Environments Without Network Connections" below.
If the follo wing is dis played on the AlertViewer even when you have specified as above,
Component : {unknown server}
Address : 127.0.0.1
change the IP address to 1 27.0.0.1 on the properties of the server ic on on the Op eration Window.
