Question : Network magic needed

I manage a SAN that connects into a switch and is accessible via private ip space. I also have servers that connect into the switch that do so via an extra NIC that is on the same private ip space. The servers have other NICS that have public access. The switch has no direct connections to the internet, only the private ip space touches the switch. My problem is that I need to setup monitoring on the SAN from outside via SNMP or I can setup SNMP trap destinations. Additionally, I need to be able to have the SAN be able to send out email for alerts. Does anyone have any magic to get this done?

Regards

Answer : Network magic needed

Do any of the servers that are connected to this switch have internet access or can be accessed by a system that has internet access.

One option is to add the MS SMTP service to one of those servers that will be a relay agent. The SAN will send the email through this server.  The SMTP service on the server would need to be configured to route the email up the chain, repeat this step with the next server until such time as it winds up on a server that has internet access or access to your internal email server whichever is closer. No point of sending an email out through the internet if it is going to wind up on one of your own servers.

The same method can be applied with SNMPtrap that involves processing and resending the traps.

An option could be receive SNMPTRAP events record them in a database to which an external system through any means already has access.
