Configuring the Remoteye II via SNMP
The RemotEye II supports SNMP. Any workstation with SNMP management
software can manage a Toshiba UPS through RemotEye II.
Note: This section will focus entirely on RemotEye II operation in conjunction with
the RFC1628-compatible MIB, Toshiba.mib.
System Requirements
There are two components of an SNMP system: an Agent and a Manager. The Agent
collects information about a network node. The Manager collects information from
the Agent.
The RemotEye II provides an Agent for a Toshiba UPS. The Manager is a software
application that is provided separately. A workstation running Manager software is
considered a Network Management Station (NMS).
There are many Manager applications available. Some commonly used applications
are listed below:
Cabletron Spectrum,
DEC Polycenter,
HP OpenView,
IBM NetView,
Novell Managewise, and
SunNet Manager.
The RemotEye II and the Manager software must be configured to communicate with
one another.
