HP ProCurve Switch

What is Discovered and Monitored

Protocol

Information Discovered

Metrics collected

Used for

SNMP (V1, V2c)

Host name, version, Hardware model, Network interfaces,

Uptime, CPU and Memory utilization, Network Interface metrics (utilization, bytes sent and received, packets sent and received, errors, discards and queue lengths), Hardware status: Power Supply, Fan, Temperature

Availability and Performance Monitoring

Telnet/SSH

Running and startup configuration

Startup configuration change, delta between running and startup configuration

Performance Monitoring, Security and Compliance

SNMP (V1, V2c)

Trunk port connectivity between switches and VLANs carried over a trunk port, End host Layer 2 port mapping: switch interface to VLAN id, end host IP/MAC address association

Topology and end-host location

Configuration

SNMP
  1. Go to Configuration > SNMP Community > V1/V2 Community.
  2. Enter a Community Name.
  3. For MIB-View, select Operator.
  4. For Write-Access, leave the selection cleared.
  5. Click Add.
SSH/Telnet
  1. Log into the device manager for your ProCurve switch.
  2. Go to Security > Device Passwords.
  3. Create a user and password for Read-Write Access.
    Although FortiSIEM does not modify any configurations for your switch, Read-Write Access is needed to read the device configuration.
  4. Go to Security > Authorized Addresses and add the FortiSIEM IP to Telnet/SSH.
    This is an optional step.

Settings for Access Credentials

Set these Access Method Definition values to allow FortiSIEM to communicate with your device.
