Select Option 2 for Network. Next select Option 1 for TCP/IP settings.
At this point the following settings will be to be specified:
• Verify System IP: <IPaddress>
• Specify Subnet Mask: i.e. "225.225.225.0"
• Specify Default Gateway
• Specify Host Name
• Specify Domain Name
Specifying these parameters will complete the General Parameters setup. Additionally the SNMP Network
Management Card can now be connected to from a web browser for monitoring and additional
configuration.
Set SNMP card Shutdown Parameters
There are two shutdown parameters that must be set in the SNMP card to ensure that connected servers
shutdown quietly. These parameters can be set via the telnet terminal or the web browser interface.
• Shutdown Delay (sec)
• Return Battery Capacity (%)
One of the draw-backs of SNMP communication to the UPS is that the Stand-alone or Primary server
must issue the power down command to the UPS early in server halt procedure. This server must issue
an early command to the SNMP UPS to power down before its ethernet service is halted. This creates a
potential problem where the UPS may kill power to any connected servers before these affected servers'
halt scripts complete a successful shutdown.
The SNMP Shutdown Delay parameter is used to delay the UPS from killing power to its load by a
prescribed period of seconds. The delay should be long enough to ensure that the Stand-alone or Primary
server has enough time to successfully halt. The prescribed time should at least be 180 seconds. Any
additional computers connected to the SNMP UPS must not be configured to issue the command to
initiate UPS power down. These servers can be thought of as secondary stand-alone server. The
APCUPSD daemons of secondary servers should be configured to initiate server halt a prescribed period
of time before the Primary server issues the UPS power down command.
The Return on Battery Capacity is useful during intermittent sequential power failures. This parameter
insures that the UPS will not restore power to its loads until it has recharged it battery to a prescribed
percentage. This parameter should be set to a value greater than value that the APCUPSD daemons
configured "BATTERYLEVEL" shutdown of any connected servers. This will ensure that when the UPS
restores power, any additional power failures will successfully re-trigger a server shutdown.
Configure Event Trap Receivers
