`
`The PowerNet MIB software is protected by both United States copyright law and international treaty provisions. Therefore, you must treat this
`software just like a book, with the following exception: American Power Conversion Corporation (APC) authorizes you to make archival copies
`of the software for the sole purpose of backing up our software and protecting your investment from loss.
`
`By saying “just like a book”, APC means, for example, that the PowerNet SNMP Agent may be used by any number of people and may be freely
`moved from one computer/Uninterruptible Power Source (UPS) location to another, so long as there is no possibility of it being used in one
`location while it is also being used in another. Just as a book cannot be read by two different people in two different places at the same time,
`neither can the PowerNet SNMP Agent be used by two different people in two different places at the same time (unless, of course, APC’s
`copyright has been violated).
`
`Unlimited copies of the PowerNet MIB may be used in conjunction with any properly licensed copy of the PowerNet SNMP Agent.
`
`In addition, by using this package, you agree not to reverse engineer, reverse assemble, or reverse compile the software.

`
`Chapter 1
`PowerNet SNMP MIB Structure
`
`This chapter breaks the PowerNet SNMP MIB down into its major OID and trap components.
`
`PowerNet MIB Traps
`
`An Adapter, Agent or MasterSwitch can send traps to an NMS when specific events occur. The NMS does not need to
`use the PowerNet SNMP MIB to get the trap, but it does need the MIB to interpret the trap’s meaning. Also, which
`NMSs can actually receive traps depends on the trap receiver definitions a particular Adapter, Agent or MasterSwitch
`uses.
`
`For more information on traps, see CHAPTER 7.
`
`PowerNet MIB OIDs
`
`The PowerNet MIB OIDs allow an NMS to use its SNMP browser to manage:
`
`An Adapter, its UPS and Measure-UPS
`An Agent, its UPS and Measure-UPS
`A MasterSwitch
`
`However, in the case of an Adapter or MasterSwitch, the NMS can only manage a product if the product’s SNMP
`access controls allow that NMS to have SNMP access. (An Agent, which has limited control over a UPS, does not use
`SNMP access controls.)
`
`SNMP Access Controls
`
`A PowerNet Adapter and MasterSwitch use console programs which you can use to define specific SNMP access
`values for up to four SNMP channels.
`
`You Can
`Disable SNMP access altogether
`Use an NMS IP Address as a SNMP channel value
`Define a non-default password for an SNMP channel
`
`Select the type of access used by an SNMP channel
`
`To Do this
`Prevent SNMP access by any NMS.
`Limit channel access to only the defined NMS.
`Limit channel access to an NMS which knows the
`password.
`Allow an NMS to have write access, or just read access.

`
`SNMP Browser Structure
`
`The PowerNet MIB fits into a top-down structure within the SNMP browser’s categories. For example, when using an
`HP OpenView for Windows SNMP browser, the PowerNet MIB OIDs fit into the browser’s structure, as follows:
`
`[iso] (for International Standards Organization) at the top
`[org] (for organization) under [iso]
`[dod] (for Department of Defense) under [org]
`[internet] under [dod]
`[private] under [internet]
`[enterprises] under [private]
`[apc] (for American Power Conversion) under [enterprises]
`
`PowerNet SNMP MIB OIDs Structure
`
`The PowerNet MIB OIDs also break down into a top-down structure, from [apc] at the top, down to individual OIDs at
`the bottom of specific OID categories, or within a specific OID table (see the separate section on TABLED OIDS).
`
`The OID categories provide for grouping specific functions together. For example, under [apc], two categories appear:
`[products], which provides the OIDs you can use to manage specific products, and [apcmgmt], which provides OIDs
`you can use to affect the operation of hardware-based (PowerNet Adapter and MasterSwitch) SNMP agents (for
`more information on how to use the [apcmgmt] OIDs, see CHAPTER 2: HOW TO MANAGE POWERNET ADAPTERS AND
`AGENTS).
`
`Under [products], three categories appear, two of which provide OIDs you can use to manage specific products.
`
`[hardware]
`
`[software]
`
`This category breaks down into categories for each type
`of hardware product you can manage using PowerNet
`MIB OIDs. Separate chapters in this guide describe how
`to use the OIDs which fall under[hardware]:
`
`This category includes read-only OIDs you can use to
`monitor a software PowerNet SNMP Agent, only (as
`described in CHAPTER 2). A single category appears under
`[software]:
`
`[ups] (CHAPTER 3)
`[measureUps] (CHAPTER 4)
`[miniSNMPadapter] (CHAPTER 2)
`[masterswitch] (CHAPTER 5)
`[masterswitchVM] (CHAPTER 6)
`
`[powerNetSubAgent]
`
`The third listing [system] does not provide OIDs you can use for SNMP management. This category contains read-only
`OIDs which identify UPS, Measure-UPS and MasterSwitch models by unique numbers, numbers other OIDs can
`reference. For example, the MIB-II system
`OIDs (listed under [internet], [mgmt], [mib-2] and [system]) use a
`PowerNet MIB [system] OID number for the MIB-II’s [sysObjectID] value.

`

`
`Tabled OIDs
`
`For any PowerNet MIB OID category listed in the SNMP browser, you can access a list of the current values for all
`OIDs from that category down. For example, you can select [apc], to list the current values for all PowerNet MIB
`OIDs, or [ups], to list the current values for all PowerNet MIB UPS OIDs.
`
`With an exception: OIDs grouped together in a table will not appear in such a list. You can only access an OID table’s
`values by selecting that table OID in the SNMP browser (an OID table appears enclosed in curly {} brackets). For
`example, to access the OIDs which define all four trap receivers for an Adapter (or MasterSwitch), you select
`{mconfigTrapReceiverTable} in the SNMP browser.
`
`For more information on how to define trap receivers, see CHAPTER 2.

`Chapter 2:
`How to Manage PowerNet Adapters and Agents
`
`This chapter describes how to use PowerNet MIB OIDs to manage a PowerNet Adapter, or view software data for a
`PowerNet SNMP Agent.
`
`Overview
`
`A PowerNet Adapter directly connects a UPS and a Measure-UPS to the network; a PowerNet Agent indirectly
`connects a UPS and a Measure-UPS by communicating with a PowerChute plus application, which, in turn,
`communicates with the UPS and Measure-UPS. In both cases, the network connection allows an NMS to use an
`SNMP browser and PowerNet MIB OIDs to manage the UPS and Measure-UPS.
`
`In addition to using SNMP to manage a device connected to the network by an Adapter or Agent, the NMS can also
`use PowerNet MIB OIDs to manage the PowerNet Adapter, or monitor software values for the PowerNet Agent.
`
`To Do this
`Use
`[powerNetSubAgent] read-only OIDs View information about a PowerNet SNMP Agent (see HOW TO MONITOR
`A POWERNET AGENT).
`Manage a PowerNet Adapter 's internal SNMP agent (see HOW TO
`MANAGE A POWERNET ADAPTER'S SNMP AGENT).
`
`[apcmgmt] OIDs
`
`[serialPort2] OIDs
`
`Define a PowerNet 2.2 Adapter's serial port operation (see HOW TO
`CONTROL A POWERNET 2.2 ADAPTER'S SERIAL PORT).
`
`Note: You can also use these OIDs to manage a MasterSwitch SNMPagent.
`
`How to Monitor a PowerNet Agent
`
`You can use [powerNetSubAgent] read-only OIDs to view information about a PowerNet Agent:
`
`1) Select [product] under [apc].
`2) Then select [software].
`3) Then select [powerNetSubAgent].
`
`The SNMP browser lists two OID categories: [powerNetSoftwareSystem] and [powerNetSoftwareConfig].

`
`How to Manage A PowerNet Adapter (or MasterSwitch) SNMP Agent
`
`When you select [apcmgmt] under [apc], the SNMP browser lists four OID categories: [mcontrol], [mconfig],
`[mtrapargs] and [mfiletransfer]. With the exception of the OIDs involved with downloading new agent code, you can
`use these OIDs to manage either an Adapter or a MasterSwitch. You can use two [mconfig] OIDs for configuration of
`downloading new agent code to an SNMP Adapter. See Chapter 6 for more information.
`
`The[mcontrol]
`
`OID
`
`Use
`mcontrolRestartAgent
`
`To SET this Value
`- restartCurrentAgent (1) (reboots the Adapter's SNMP agent)
`- continueCurrentAgent (2) (continues the Agent without rebooting)
`-l oadandExecuteNewAgent (3) (starts to download new code)
`- restartWithoutAgent (4) (will restart the system without starting the Agent.
` The subsequent time the system restarts, the Agent will also automatically
` restart.)
`
`Note: Only an SNMPAdapter can use theloadandExecuteNewAgent(3) value to start a download of new agent code.
`
`You also use two [mconfig]

`Chapter 3:
`How to Manage a UPS
`
`This chapter describes how to use PowerNet MIB OIDs to manage (monitor, configure, control and test) a UPS
`through its PowerNet Adapter or PowerNet Agent.
`
`Overview
`
`The PowerNet MIB OIDs you can use to manage a UPS fall into eight categories under the heading of [ups]:
`
`1) Select [product] under [apc].
`2) Then select [hardware].
`3) Then select [ups] to list the eight OID categories.
`
`OIDs in These Categories
`[upsIdent]
`[upsBattery]
`[upsInput]
`[upsOutput]
`[upsComm]
`[upsConfig]
`
`[upsControl]
`
`[upsTest]
`
`Allow You to Do this
`View information about the UPS and its OVERALL operation (see HOW TO
`MONITOR A UPS).
`
`Modify parameters which affect the overall operation of the UPS (see HOW
`TO CONFIGURE A UPS).
`Directly affect the current operation of the UPS (see HOW TO CONTROL A
`UPS).
`Verify that the UPS can operate correctly during a power failure (see HOW
`TO TEST A UPS).
`
`How many of the OIDs in these eight [ups] OID categories you can actually use to manage a UPS depends on
`how that UPS connects to the network. Also, within these categories two types of OIDs can exist: Simple-
`signalling ([upsBasic]) OIDs and smart-signalling ([upsAdv]) OIDs. For a PowerNet Agent, the type of
`signalling used for the connection between the Agent and the UPS does affect what OIDs you can use.
`
`PowerNet Adapter
`You can use all OIDs listed under
`the PowerNet MIB's [ups]
`category.
`
`PowerNet Adapter v2.2
`You can use all [ups] OIDs
`supported by v2.2 of the
`PowerNet MIB.
`
`PowerNet Agent
`You cannot use:
`- [ups] OIDs not originally
` supported for use by PowerNet
`Agents in PowerNet MIB v2.2.
`- [upsAdv]-type OIDs, if the
` Agent-to-UPS communication
` uses simple-signalling.

`
`How to Monitor a UPS
`
`You use GETs (SNMP read commands) to PowerNet MIB OIDs to monitor (view information about) the UPS.
`However, not every PowerNet MIB OID will respond to a GET with useful information. For example, if you use a GET
`with any [upsControl] OID, the returned value simply tells you that the related control action was not taken by the
`UPS: A GET to [upsAdvControlFlashAndBeep] receives a noFlashAndBeep response; A GET to
`[upsAdvControlRebootUps] receives a noRebootUps response.
`
`However, most PowerNet MIB categories have OIDs which you can use to view information about the UPS operation.
`With few exceptions, these OIDs respond to GETs, but not to SETs: You can view (GET) information about UPS
`operation, but you cannot affect (SET) that operation.
`
`OIDs in These Categories
`[upsIdent]
`[upsBattery]
`[upsInput]
`[upsOutput]
`
`[upsComm]
`
`Allow You to View Information about
`The UPS identification parameters (see UPS IDENTIFICATION ([upsIdent]) OIDS).
`The UPS battery status (see UPS BATTERY ([upsBattery]) OIDS).
`The voltage coming to the UPS (see UPS INPUT ([upsInput]) OIDS).
`The voltage output by the UPS (see UPS OUTPUT ([upsOutput]) OIDS).
`The UPS-to-SNMP agent communication link (see UPS COMMUNICATION
`([upsComm]) OID).
`
`UPS Identification ([upsIdent]) OIDs
`
`The [upsIdent] category has five OIDs which identify UPS identification parameter values: Four read-only OIDs which
`report factory-preset values, and one OID which reports the name used for the UPS, a name you can define using a
`SET.
`
`You can access all five OIDs through any PowerNet Adapter or PowerNet Agent which connects to the UPS through
`a smart-signalling cable. For a PowerNet Agent which connects to the UPS through a simple-signalling cable, you can
`only use the two [upsBasicIdent] OIDs.

`
`UPS Battery ([upsBattery]
`
`) OIDs
`
`The [upsBattery] category has nine OIDs which provide UPS battery status information: Eight read-only OIDs, and
`one OID which reports when the battery was last replaced, a value you can define using a SET.
`
`You can access all nine OIDs through any PowerNet Adapter, or through a PowerNet Agent which connects to the
`UPS through a smart-signalling cable. For a PowerNet Agent which connects to the UPS through a simple-signalling
`cable, you can only use the three [upsBasicBattery] OIDs.
`
`This OID
`upsBasicBatteryStatus
`
`Reports
`
`The current UPS battery status:
`- unknown (Adapter or Agent cannot report the status)
`- batteryNormal (within normal operating parameters)
`- batteryLow (lacks enough power to support the UPS load equipment)
`When the battery was last replaced, a value you can change using a SET.
`How much time has passed since the UPS switched to battery power.
`What percentage of full battery capacity the battery currently has.
`The internal temperature of the UPS, in Celsius.
`How much longer the UPS can use battery power for its output voltage.
`Whether or not a UPS battery needs a replacement:
`- noBatteryNeedsReplacing
`- batteryNeedsReplacing
`How many external battery packs a Matrix-UPS or Smart-UPS XL has.
