SNMP Gets and Sets
In addition to sending notifications, the PDU is able to receive SNMP get and set requests from third-party SNMP
managers.
•
Get requests are used to retrieve information about the PDU, such as the system location, and the current on a specific
outlet.
•
Set requests are used to configure a subset of the information, such as the SNMP system name.
Note: The SNMP system name is the PDU name. When you change the SNMP system name, the device name shown in
the web interface is also changed.
The PDU does NOT support configuring IPv6-related parameters using the SNMP set requests.
Valid objects for these requests are limited to those found in the SNMP MIB-II System Group and the custom PDU MIB.
The PDU MIB
The SNMP MIB file is required for using your PDU with an SNMP manager. An SNMP MIB file describes the SNMP
functions.
