Configuration of the SNMP modules in the UPS

Chapter 2: SNMP Configuration

After the control network equipment is installed and connected, configure the SNMP modules to send alarms (traps) to the media servers.

Configure:

●the SNMP modules in each UPS (if supplied by Avaya)

●the SNMP Subagent in the Avaya Ethernet switch (if supplied by Avaya)

First configure the SNMP agents. Then install Avaya Communication Manager on the media server, configure the media server, and verify its operation. In a duplicated system, install Avaya Communication Manger on the first media server and verify its operation before you repeat the process on the second media server.

Configuration of the SNMP modules in the UPS

Note:

These instruction apply only if using a new, Avaya-supplied uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with a simple network management protocol (SNMP) module. Do not use these procedures to set traps on a non-Avaya-supplied UPS.

The SNMP module in the UPS must be administered so it reports alarms to the media server when the hardware experiences problems. The module reports the loss of commercial power and the depletion of battery resources.

For the SNMP module to properly report alarms, a unique IP address for the UPS must be configured on both the SNMP module and the media server. This IP address can be a customer-provided one or the Avaya-provided default one. At a minimum, the following items must be configured:

●IP address

●Subnet mask

●Gateway IP address

●Trap receiver IP address

●Community string (get, set, trap)
