1 Introduction

This document provides information about installing HP Integrity Essentials Intelligent

Networking Pack licenses and configuring Intelligent Networking Pack features.

Overview

The HP Integrity Essentials Intelligent Networking Pack (INP) enables your servers to actively

adapt to networking infrastructure problems, thereby improving server availability and network

performance. INP is part of the Integrity Essentials software family and is integrated with HP

Systems Insight Manager and HP Management agents.

The Intelligent Networking Pack includes all of the following features:

•Virus Throttle: this network packet-filtering tool helps slow down the spread of viruses on

your system. Virus Throttle monitors all outbound connection requests and counts the

number of unique connections. It detects abnormal or “virus-like” behavior in the requests,

and slows down excessive connection requests to new hosts until you can determine if they

are viral in nature and take action.

•Advanced networking capabilities: these redundancy features let HP Integrity servers

adapt and change network paths to achieve maximum reliability and performance. They

can detect and analyze network bottlenecks or broken network linkages, and then redirect

traffic to the optimum route based on current conditions.

Advanced networking features include:

—Active Path Failover: allows an Integrity server to detect and bypass failed network

paths

—Fast Path Failover: allows an Integrity server to determine the fastest path to the core

network (or the root bridge)

—Router Path Failover: allows you to assign multiple routers to a single router group,

with one of them functioning as the “active” router that forwards packets. If that router

fails, a second one takes over.

—Dual Channel Load Balancing: allows the creation of two teams, called groups, inside

of a single team. Each group is assigned one or more teamed ports and can be connected

to a different switch to provide switch fault tolerance. Full inbound and outbound load

balancing is provided across both groups. Should any group completely fail, caused by

a failure of all teamed ports in the group or by a failure of the group's switch, the team

remains available through the other group. Two types of Dual Channel Load Balancing

teams can be configured: Switch-assisted Dual Channel Load Balancing teams and

802.3ad Dynamic Dual Channel Load Balancing teams.

—Dual Channel Network Fault Tolerance: allows the creation of two teams, called groups,

inside of a single team. All team members within each group are dynamically placed

into a port-trunk/channel by dynamic Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)

agreement with the switch. A failure of a team member to synchronize joining a

port-trunk or channel with the switch is treated as an error and that team member is

considered failed. Dynamic Dual Channel Network Fault Tolerance (NFT) provides the

safety of additional backup links between the server and hub/switch. Dynamic Dual

Channel NFT is implemented with one channel team providing a primary adapter and

another channel team providing a secondary, backup adapter. During normal operations,

if the adapters in the primary team fail, a link to one of the adapters in the secondary,

backup team automatically takes over. Four types of Dual Channel NFT teams can be

configured: Switch-assisted Dual Channel NFT teams, Switch-assisted Dual Channel

NFT and Preference Order teams, 802.3ad Dynamic Dual Channel NFT teams, and

802.3ad Dynamic Dual Channel NFT and Preference Order teams.

Overview 9

—Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) support: a media- and protocol-independent network

protocol used to obtain protocol addresses of neighboring devices and discover the

platform and other information about those devices.

—Link Layer Discover Protocol (LLDP) support: a media- and protocol-independent

network protocol used to obtain protocol addresses of neighboring devices and discover

the platform and other information about those devices.

—Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) support: IGMP is a session-layer

(Layer-3) protocol used to establish membership in a Multicast group. It can register a

router to receive specific multicast traffic.

To enable the Intelligent Networking Pack features, an Intelligent Networking Pack license must

be installed on the system. This user guide describes how to install an Intelligent Networking

Pack license on your system and how to install and configure the Intelligent Networking Pack

features.

For more information about obtaining an INP license, refer to the HP INP web page.

Intelligent Networking Pack licenses

Each server requires a separate Intelligent Networking Pack (INP) license. Once installed on the

system, the license is “attached” to the server and cannot be revoked. The license stays with that

server for the life of the server. The license is attached to the server serial number, so a change

in server's name or IP address will not invalidate the license. One Intelligent Networking Pack

license enables all INP features on the server.

INP license types include:

•Single: provides full, unlimited functionality for a single seat (license).

•Flexible Quantity: offers full, unlimited functionality for an unlimited time and for a specific

number of seats purchased, up to 50,000.

•Activation Key Agreement: offers full, unlimited functionality for an unlimited time. This

license represents an expected upper limit on the number of seats, up to 50,000.

•Demo: provides full, unlimited functionality for a limited time and a specific number of

seats. The license determines the number of days the key allows the product to function.

The days begin counting from the day of first use. The key can permit more than one instance

of the product to run. Demo keys can authorize up to 250 seats for up to 250 days.

After the license key is installed on the system, the advanced features are activated and ready

for configuration through the Network Configuration Utility (NCU) and several command line

scripting utilities. In addition, Virus Throttle can also be installed following the installation of

an INP license.

Different ways to install Intelligent Networking Pack licenses

You can install Intelligent Networking Pack licenses using any of the following tools:

• HP Integrity Essentials Network License Manager, which can be accessed using:

— HP Network Configuration Utility (NCU), or

— HP Virus Throttle Utility installation

• HP Network Adapter License (nalicense) Utility

• HP Virus Throttle License (VTLicense) Utility

• HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM) License Manager

The installation process used with each of these tools is described in the sections that follow.

HP Integrity Essentials Network License Manager

The HP Integrity Essentials Network License Manager can be opened through the Network

Configuration Utility (NCU) or through installation of the Virus Throttle utility. Both the NCU
