Chapter 8 Managing SNMP-SSL/UPS via SNMP
If you intend to manage your SNMP-SSL/UPS via SNMP NMS (Network Management
station), you may want to customize some of the SNMP settings such as System Name,
System Contact and System Location and so on.
Note:
Before using SNMP-SSL card in an SNMP environment, the IP address, gateway
must be configured properly. See Chapter 2 for details.
SNMP Access Control Setting
SNMP-SSL card supports SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 protocols. You can use the SNMP NMS
to manage the UPS through the network. The IP address of the workstation must be
entered in the SNMP-SSL card’s write access table to prevent unauthorized users from
configuring SNMP-SSL card via HTTP or SNMP protocols.
Note:
If you do not enter the IP address of the workstation to the Access Control Table
(via Serial Port or Telnet) or the SNMP/HTTP Access Control (via Web Browser) in the
SNMP-SSL card, the SNMP NMS can only view the UPS status; it will not be able to
perform any configuration on SNMP-SSL/UPS. (See Pg. 15 Access Control Table Setting
and Pg. 38 SNMP/HTTP Access Control for details.)
SNMP Trap Receivers Setting
See Pg. 40 SNMP Trap Receivers for details.
Setting up the NMS
1. Add the MIB file from the SNMP-SSL CD-ROM to the MIB database of the SNMP
manager.
2. Search for SNMP-SSL in the network.
3. To access the SNMP-SSL SNMP agent, use ‘public’ for the GET community string
and the Read/Write password (default is
admin
) for the SET community string.
GET Community string: public
SET Community string: admin
For more information, see the SNMP-SSL card’s MIB file on the SNMP-SSL CD-ROM.
