PowerNet MIB Structure
Tra ps
Management Cards, APC devices, and APC agents can send traps to a Network
Management System (NMS) when specific events occur. The trap receiver definitions
that a particular Management Card, device, or agent uses determine which NMSs can
receive traps. The MIB provides the meaning of each trap.
OIDs
APC products than can use OIDs
PowerNet MIB OIDs allow an NMS to use its SNMP browser to manage the following:
Any APC product that relies on an external, pre-installed, or embedded (built-in)
Management Card for its network interface and that has its SNMP access controls
set to allow an NMS to have SNMP access.
A PowerNet Agent and the devices it controls. A PowerNet Agent has limited control
over a UPS and does not use SNMP access controls.
SNMP access controls
You can use the Web interface or control console of a Management Card or a device
with an embedded Management Card to define these SNMP access controls for up to
four SNMP communities (SNMPv1), four user profiles (SNMPv3), or both:
Disable SNMP access to prevent access by any NMS (SNMPv1 and SNMPv3).
Associate an NMS IP address to an SNMP community name (SNMPv1) or to a user
profile (SNMPv3) to limit access to only the defined NMS.
