System Application
SNMP-NET is an interface between the UPS and the network. It can obtain the status from a
UPS and issue commands to it. SNMP-NET supports two kinds of protocol – SNMP and HTTP
for user access. Through the SNMP NMS and Web Browser, the user can obtain the UPS
status; issue commands to UPS and set-up the SNMP-NET through the network.
SNMP-NET also provides shutdown software for various OS’. The shutdown software that
runs under various OS can link to the SNMP-NET automatically through the network and
communicate with SNMP-NET via SNMP protocol. The shutdown software retrieves UPS
information from SNMP-NET. The Shutdown software will then proceed to the shutdown
process in order to prevent the abnormal shutoff of host or server due to power events.
