To configure polling for a 7210 SAS

Steps
 

Choose Equipment or Routing from the navigation tree view selector, right-click on a 7210 SAS, and choose Properties. The Network Element form opens.


Record the system IP address and the management IP address.


If required, configure the Location parameters.


Click on the Polling tab, then the General tab.


Enable or disable the Scheduled Polling parameter. Scheduled polling is configured using the Mediation configuration form. See To configure device mediation for more information.


Verify that the Persistent SNMP Indices parameter is set to true to ensure that persistent SNMP indices are used.


Configure the parameters in the Bof Configuration panel as required.


View the read-only parameters to determine the current polling status:

  • Resync Status indicates whether the last poll was successfully completed.

  • Last Resync Start Time and Last Resync End Time indicate the start and finish of the last poll.

  • Scheduled Resync Status indicates whether the last scheduled poll was successfully completed.

  • Last Scheduled Resync Start Time and Last Scheduled Resync End Time indicate the start and finish of the last scheduled poll.


Click on the Management tab and configure the required parameters.

The Auto Revert to Preferred parameter is configurable when the Management IP Selection parameter is set to Out Of Band Preferred or In Band Preferred.

Note: The Active Management IP, Auto Revert to Preferred, and Management IP Selection parameters are not supported on the 7210 SAS-D or 7210 SAS-K. The 7210 SAS-D and 7210 SAS-K support only in-band management.

Click on the 7210 BOF tab to configure uplinks in the BOF for port redundancy.

Note: If the image path and configuration file path are local, you do not need to configure the IP address and routing information for uplink A and uplink B. You can optionally obtain IP parameters using DHCP when you configure a value of 0 for the uplink port IP address. The DHCP server should be configured to provide the IP address and the default gateway information that is used to reach the server where the image and configuration files are stored.
