The default community name is the string “public”.The trap destination is the IP address or the host name of a computer running an SNMP management application. An example of a SNMP enabled management application is the Dell Management Console. Please see dell.com for more information on the Dell Management Console.

•Replacing an SNMP address—Select the SNMP address in the Configured SNMP addresses area, type the replacement community name in Community name and the trap destination in Trap destination, and click Replace.

•Deleting an SNMP address—Select the SNMP address in the Configured SNMP addresses area, and click Delete.

•Validating an SNMP address—Select the SNMP address in the Configured SNMP addresses area, and click Test. A test message is sent to the SNMP address. A message box with the results of the validation and any error information appears.

Battery Settings

A smart battery backup unit (BBU) can perform a learn cycle. The smart BBU module includes the battery, a battery gas gauge, and a battery charger. The learn cycle calibrates the smart battery gas gauge so that it provides a measurement of the charge of the battery module. A learn cycle can only start when the battery is fully charged.
