Task 7Using HP OpenView to Create the
SNMP Framework
About HP OpenView
The primary function of HP OpenView (HPOV) is to manage faults.
In this case study, HP OpenView:
Discovers all the devices in the network.
Functions as the central-starting point for other element managers (EM). After HPOV is installed,
the remaining components of the network management architecture are built around HPOV.
Resides on the same Unix workstation as CiscoWorks 2000 Resource Manager Essentials,
which gathers the following database information from HPOV:
`
Device names and IP addresses
`
Community strings

Note
This section assumes that HP Network Node Manager Release 5.0 is already installed on
a Solaris workstation.
