Compaq SNMP-EN Adapter
The Compaq SNMP-EtherNet Adapter is a user interface to the UPS in a network where SNMP-based network management software is installed (Compaq OnliNet). Using the SNMP-EN Adapter’s communication interface, system administrators can virtually eliminate costly downtime due to power outages and/or surges. This will decrease day-to-day network management
annoyances like spontaneous rebooting, lost files and corrupted data¾issues resulting from inconsistent power. The Compaq SNMP-EN Adapter provides the means to quickly ascertain if a power-related problem exists anywhere on the network.
The Compaq SNMP-EN Adapter lets you monitor the network without having to run power management software on a server. Other network
components¾like hubs and routers¾can be monitored, even when Compaq Power Management Software is not in use.
The Compaq SNMP-EN Adapter Kit includes Compaq OnliNet software and documentation, as well as information on installing and configuring the Compaq SNMP-EN Adapter using MIB and Power MIB.
