DNS Configuration

DNS configuration affects the SNMP/Web adapter ability to resolve symbolic hostnames to IP addresses, and may

impact other functionality (such as e-mail sending, for example):

The SNMP/Web adapters can be configured to automatically obtain DNS server address (e.g. Primary and Second-

ary DNS server as specified in the DHCP response). This is the defaults setting. Alternatively, the IP address of the

DNS servers may be specified manually. The adapters also offer a DNS lookup feature, which allows verification of

the DNS setting by sending a DNS query.

NOTE

: DNS settings may be critical for the SNMP/Web adapter operation. Incorrect DNS configuration may com-

promise the functionality of other network services (as an example, some services may require reverse DNS).

Therefore make sure the DNS is correctly configured, especially when a manual configuration is selected.

Hostname

The SNMP/Web adapter is configured with a hostname: a fully qualified domain name for the adapter. The adapter

will always include this information in the relevant communication to the DHCP server (option 12 – host name

field). The DHCP server may use this information to update the DNS server, so that the adapter will be accessible

using its domain name.

The adapter can also be configured to use the hostname as received from the DHCP server. This is NOT the default

behavior and must be explicitly enabled through the console interface using the dhcphost command.

Multi-Server Network Shutdown (RCCMD)

The SNMP/Web adapters include a module for Multi-Server Network Shutdown. This module allows the configura-

tion of a shutdown strategy for several servers powered by the UPS when the batteries are running low following

a prolonged mains failure.

Network Shutdown With RCCMD

RCCMD (Remote Console Command) is a mechanism that allows the execution of commands on remote systems.

With the SNMP/Web adapters this mechanism is used to shutdown servers powered by the UPS. The SNMP/Web

adapter acts like the master (RCCMD Sender) while the servers and remote systems act as slaves (RCCMD Listener).

RCCMD is based on standard TCP/IP network protocols, therefore allowing the shutdown of servers running differ-

ent operating systems and operating in a heterogeneous network.

RCCMD does not include the command that is to be executed in the sending process but instead deposits the

command with the receiving process. This provides additional security, as the receiving process may check which

network node sent the RCCMD-signal and determine whether to process it.

Both the SNMP/Web adapters and the servers need to be correctly configured in order to use the

Network Shutdown functionality.

Set-up and Configuration of controlled Servers

The installation on the controller servers of the RCCMD SW (known as RCCMD Listener or RCCMD Client module)

is clearly a prerequisite. A detailed description of the installation and configuration steps is out of the scope of this

document – for details please refer to the applicable product documentation (User Manual). However, there are

a few general recommendations.
