What’s New in This Release? A new Licensing Provider is available that supplies information about Citrix licensing. With the new Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite licensing feature, licensing is managed by a license server that runs in the server farm. The Licensing Provider runs on this license server and provides information from the license server. This functionality replaces the license information traps available in previous versions of  Network Manag Manager er..

Note If you used a previous version of Network Manager with your SNMP management console, you must reconfigure any scripts or settings that use the license information traps generated by previous versions of Network Manager. For information about the Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite licensing feature, see the Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite Licensing Guide. Guide .

Installing the Microsoft SNMP Service Before you install an SNMP management console, you must install the Microsoft SNMP service if it is not already installed.

Configuring SNMP Community Security If an SNMP community on the server is configured with Read/Write permissions and the SNMP Agent is enabled, users can remotely perform potentially dangerous actions. The following Network Manager functions require Read/Write access: •

On Windows 2000 systems, the default SNMP permissions are Read Only Only.. To remotely perform the above actions on a Windows 2000 system using the Network Manager plug-in, you must change the SNMP community permissions to Read/ Write. On systems with Windows 2003 Server installed, you must first create a new SNMP community, then set the community permissions to Read/Write.

Tip To prevent unauthorized u users sers from performing these actions, you can configure the SNMP service to accept SNMP packets only from known SNMP management console computers. If you have a firewall, you can prevent “spoofing”  by configurin configuring g the firewa firewall ll to block packe packets ts co coming ming fro from m out outside side the fir firewall ewall that contain source IP addresses known to be inside the firewall. Alternatively, you can disable these features completely by removing Read/Write permissions from all SNMP communities on all servers. As an alternative to using Network Manager with Read/Write access, you can use the Presentation Server Console. The Presentation Server Console uses Windows domain-based user authentication, and is, thus, a more secure method of allowing access to these functions. You You can launch the Console directly from Network Manager. All SNMP community security settings are configured from the Security tab of the SNMP Properties dialog box. Be sure the servers and the SNMP management console computer all have at least one community name in common. To configure the servers to console, accept packets from theorcomputer running SNMP to the list management add theonly DNS name IP address of thatthe computer of hosts from which to accept packets. See your Windows system documentation for specific details about configuring SNMP community security.

Note If you change SNMP security settings, you must stop and restart the SNMP service for the new settings to take effect.

You can also use the Console to configure which traps are sent to the SNMP management consoles and what thresholds to use for the session traps. The traps can be configured either on a farm-wide basis (the default) or on a per-server basis. If the Use Farm Settings box is checked on the SNMP page in a server’s Properties dialog box, the server inherits the farm settings. Clear this option to change the SNMP trap settings for a particular server. For step-by-step instructions on configuring SNMP traps, see the MetaF the  MetaFrame rame  Present  Pr esentation ation Server Admin Administrat istrator’ or’ss Guid Guidee or the online help for the Presentation Server Console.

These color changes are propagated to the server, the MetaFrame zone, and the MetaFrame Server Farm icons. Looking at the colors of these icons is the quickest way to get a general overview of the health of the servers in your network.



Monitoring the event browser. browser. The event browser logs all traps received by the SNMP management console. You can filter this data to display di splay only traps specific to servers running runni ng MetaFrame Presentation Server.

In Tivoli NetView NetView,, you can filter the event log to include only traps for the “metaframe” enterprise. In HP OpenView and Unicenter, you can filter the event log for events containing the key phrase “CTXNM” in the description. Each Network Manager trap description has this phrase at the beginning of the description. •

Using the Citrix TrapDialog monitor. monitor. The Citrix TrapDialog monitor displays a pop-up message when a status-change trap is received. This pop-up dialog message appears only on the computer running the SNMP management console.



Configuring notification actions to take place when traps are received.  You can configure more complex monitoring and notification procedures such as sending an email or paging specific individuals by using the SNMP management console features. You can also customize the description saved to the event log. See the documentation for your management console for more

These files are locate located d in the \Netwo \NetworkMan rkManager\mi ager\mibs bs directory of the MetaFrame Presentation Server Component CD-ROM. See the documentation for the SNMP management console for instructions on how to load these files.
