Adding or updating Device Definition Files

Device Definition Files (DDFs) allow the appliance to determine what type of device is connected and what sensors it can monitor. The Device Definition File view on the Scanned Device Configuration window lists which DDFs are installed and the option to add new DDFs or update to the latest version.

To add and update your DDFs:

1.On the Device Definition Files view, click Add/Update Definitions....

2.To download the newest versions from APC, select “Check APC Website”. If you have already downloaded the required files to a local directory, select “Local File” and click Browse... to navigate to the file.

3.After you have made your selection, click Next. A list of available DDFs is displayed.

4.Choose the files to add or update and click Next.

5.Confirm that the correct files are listed and click Finish.

Supplemental OIDs view

Even if advanced data is not available for some SNMP targets, you can still configure Advanced Scanners to monitor individual OIDs on your target. You can use the Add Supplemental OID function to manually configure Advanced Scanners to monitor any valid OID on your SNMP targets.

The Supplemental OID view displays a list of supplemental OIDs and a user-defined description of the OID. To add a supplemental OID:

1.Click Add. The Add Supplemental OID window opens.

2.In the OID field, enter the OID that you want to monitor on the selected SNMP target (for example, 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.2).

3.In the Description field, enter a description of the OID (for example, UPS Temperature).

4.Click OK. Advanced Scanners query the SNMP target to determine whether the OID is valid. If the OID is valid, it is added to the Advanced Data sensor set.

Once the supplemental OID is added, it is automatically detected on any SNMP target to which it applies, and you can monitor and receive alert notifications for it.

For information on how to define thresholds and specify sensor settings on Advanced Data sensor values, see “Sensor settings” on page 49.
