For UPS2 the defaults are 198.152.255.239, 255.255.255.0.
•
IP address of the trap receiver. (Do not use the Active Server IP address.)
•
For UPS1, this is the IP address of media server 1. (default is
198.152.254.200)

NOTE:
If a Network Management System (NMS) is going to monitor the UPS units, coordinate
the assignment of community names with the network administrator (refer to the filled out
job aid titled Pre-Installation Network Planning Forms—S8700 Media Server). If an NMS
is not going to monitor the UPSs, set the community names to unique string values.
•
SNMP community string for Get, Set, and Trap.
SECURITY ALERT
The Get and Set, community name strings are generally configured with default values of
Public and Private, respectively. These community name strings function as passwords for
their respective SNMP operation. It is always a good idea to change these community name
strings to something other than the default values. If a Network Management Station is in
operation on the network, whatever these values are changed to must be coordinated with its
