Configuring the SNMP modules in the UPS

To administer the SNMP modules:

1Make sure the UPS is plugged into a nonswitched electrical outlet.

2Connect the services laptop computer (RS-232 serial port) to the DB-9 connector on the back of the SNMP module for UPS 1 using the DB-9 to DB-9 serial cable supplied with the SNMP module.

NOTE:

Avaya Terminal Emulation and HyperTerminal are supported terminal emulation applications.

3On the services laptop open a VT-100 terminal emulation session.

4Administer the terminal emulation port settings:

•9600 baud

•No parity

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•No flow control

5Follow the instructions in the User’s Guide.

6Set the following parameters:

•IP address and subnet mask of the UPS

•For UPS1, the defaults are 198.152.254.239, 255.255.255.0.

•For UPS2, the defaults are 198.152.255.239, 255.255.255.0.

•IP address of the trap receiver. (Do not use the Active Server IP address.)

•For UPS1, this is the IP address of media server 1 (default is 198.152.254.200).

•For UPS2, this is the IP address of media server 2 (default is 198.152.255.200).

•Default Gateway address of the UPS is 198.152.254.201.

NOTE:

If a Network Management System (NMS) is going to monitor the UPS, coordinate the assignment of community names with the network administrator. If an NMS is not going to monitor the UPS, set the community names to unique string values.

•SNMP community string for Get, Set, and Trap.

!SECURITY ALERT:

The Get and Set, community name strings are generally configured with default values of Public and Private, respectively. These community name strings function as passwords for their respective SNMP operation. It is always a good idea to change these community name strings to something other than the default values. If a NMS is in operation on the network, whatever these values are changed to must be coordinated with its administrator. If the defaults are left administered this could create a serious security issue. For example, the default Set community name string, with its widely known value of Private, could be used to shut down power to the UPS loads via an SNMP message.

7When completed, disconnect the services laptop computer from the UPS.
