SNMP-32 card and the UPS
A UPS can be configured with either an internal or an external SNMP-32 card; then it is connected to the network. The SNMP-32 card contains a MIB agent. The agent communicates both solicited and unsolicited messages to the Network Management Station (NMS). Unsolicited messages are defined by the MIB and are built into the agent for critical items such as AC power failure and low battery detection. The agent recognizes these critical events and immediately forwards them to the Network Management Station. The network manager will immediately notice the alarm and the flashing icon of the SNMP-32 card. By clicking on the icon, you will be able to see the alarm messages. If nobody is present, the Network Management Station will shutdown the programs, the OS server and eventually the UPS safely.
SNMP-32 card and the RPM (Remote Power Manager)
When the RPM is connected to the network with the SNMP-32L card, the system manager could check each device’s condition via a Web Browser. The manager could monitor and control the devices by simply inputting the IP address of the SNMP-32L card. When there is an abnormal power condition the SNMP-32L card will send the trap information to the system manager, and then the system manager can take the appropriate action.
SNMP-32 card and the ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch)
An ATS can be configured with the SNMP-32 card; then it is connected to the network. The ATS is an Automatic Transfer Switch with redundant input sources. The ATS can be viewed and controlled via a Web Browser.
SNMP-32 card and the CPS (Current Probe Sensor)
The CPS and the SNMP-32 card can be used to monitor the current (Amps) of 16 devices. The information can be view via a Web Browser.
SNMP-32 card and the ENV (Environmental Monitoring)
A Temperature/Humidity Probe can be connected to the SNMP-32 card to monitor the temperature and humidity of the surrounding environment. The SNMP-32 card is then, connected to the network to view the environmental conditions via a Web Browser. When an abnormal condition occurs, a trap can be sent to the system manager and activated some pre- set action configured by administrator.
