5.3 Configuring communications
This section explains the following:
Configuring SNMP proxy settings
Using NETCONF for device support
-
Configuring Communication for Virtual Environments
After reading the information in this section, see Configuring Communication Protocol in NNMi Help for specific procedures.
- Note
It is a good idea to save a copy of the existing configuration before you make any major configuration changes. For details, see 4.2 Best practice: Save the existing configuration.
Configure the following areas of communication:
Default settings
Region definitions and their settings
Specific node settings
For specific nodes, you can enter node settings through the NNMi console or through a configuration file.
- Tip
Double-check the ordering numbers for the defined regions. If a node qualifies for membership in multiple regions, NNMi applies to that node the settings from the region with the lowest ordering number.
