General menu

This menu deals with miscellaneous configuration items including device identification, date and time,

exporting and importing your NMC configuration options, the three links at the bottom left of the screen, and

consolidating data for troubleshooting purposes.

Identification screen

Path: Configuration > General > Identification

Define the Name (the device name, see “DNS screen”), the Location (the physical location), and the Contact

(the person responsible for the device) used by:

• the SNMP agent of the NMC

• StruxureWare Central

• InfraStruxure Manager

Specifically, the name field is used by the sysName, sysContact, and sysLocation object

identifiers (OIDs) in the NMC’s SNMP agent. For more information about MIB-II OIDs, see the

PowerNet

SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) Reference Guide, available on the

Network Management Card Utility CD and the website, www.apc.com.

The Name and Location fields also identify the device when you register for the Remote Monitoring Service.

See “Remote Monitoring Service” for more information.

Date/ Time screen

Mode.

Path: Configuration > General > Date/Time > Mode

Set the time and date used by the NMC. You can change the current settings manually or through a Network

Time Protocol (NTP) Server:

With both, you select the Time Zone. This is your local time difference with Coordinated Universal Time

(UTC), also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

• Manual Mode: Do one of the following:

– Enter the date and time for the

NMC or

– mark the check box Apply Local Computer Time to read the date and time settings of the

computer you are using and apply those here.

• Synchronize with NTP Server: Have an NTP (Network Time Protocol) Server define the date and

time for the

NMC.

By default, any

NMC on the private side of an StruxureWare Central obtains its time settings by

using StruxureWare Central as an NTP server.

Field Description

Override Manual NTP

Settings

If you select this, data from other sources (typically DHCP) take precedence

over the NTP configurations you set here.

Primary NTP Server Enter the IP address or domain name of the primary NTP server.
