Ethernet SNMP Module Installation and Reference Guide ( J2603B) 1995-10

When you install an HP Ethernet SNMP Module in your AdvanceStack
10Base-T Hub, the functionality from both out-of-band management
(HP Stack Manager) and in-band management (from an SNMP network
management station) is extended. Without the HP Ethernet SNMP Module
installed, the hub cannot be directly managed in band. See your hub manual
if you want a description of the basic functionality that is possible without
the HP Ethernet SNMP module installed.
The HP AdvanceStack hubs are designed to operate unattended. With the
HP Ethernet SNMP Module, several interfaces are provided with the hub for
customizing its configuration, monitoring its activity, or running diagnostics.
This chapter describes the features available from:
HP Stack Manager
HP Interconnect/Manager
