Configuring Target Devices
By selecting the Config - Target Devices menu option, the administrative user can configure target
devices connected to the SP manager and configure data buffering. Target devices are defined
using the values described in Table 4.15 on page 47.
The Data Buffering Default menu sets a default for data buffering for all devices, either Yes or No.
When configuring individual devices, the administrative user can then select either Default, Yes or
No to configure data buffering for the specific device. Selecting Default on this screen means that
the data buffering value set on this page is used when the administrative user configures new
target devices.
CAUTION: All devices connected to the private Ethernet ports of the SP manager must have a previously
configured private subnet name assigned. If not, the device would only be accessible if connected to the public
network, a highly unlikely scenario which is strongly discouraged.
The Web Manager displays target devices in the order in which they are configured. An
administrator can configure target device lists to appear in alphabetical order using the cli utility.
See Changing the Sort Order of Device Listings on page 132.
To configure data buffering for all target devices:
1. Select the Config
- Target Devices menu option.
2. Select Yes or No from the Data buffering Default pull
-down menu.
3. Click OK.
4. Click Save and apply changes.
Adding a target device
Make sure the following are complete.
• A private subnet has been created.
• An administrator has followed the procedure under To find out if an existing command
template works with a new target device: on page 178 to find out if a default command
template works with the new device. If a new template is needed, either the sptemplate utility
can be used directly by an administrator as described under To use the sptemplate utility to
create a new template: on page 178, or an administrative user can use the Web Manager
configuration screen as described in Configuring Target Device Types on page 80.
• You know the username and password pair that are used for logging into the SP or other type
of target device.
