PowerChute Network Shutdown can be configured to communicate via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), and can be discovered via SNMP by Network Management tools, such as StruxureWare Data Center Expert. Using SNMP, you can query and configure PowerChute settings, and generate SNMP traps for UPS critical events and lost communication events.
SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 are supported by PowerChute Network Shutdown. IPv4 and IPv6 are both supported. Go to SNMP Settings in the web user interface to complete the configuration and make PowerChute accessible via SNMP. It is not necessary to re-start the PowerChute service when enabling SNMP or making SNMP configuration changes via the web user interface. PowerChute configuration changes via SNMP are logged to the Event Log.
Enter the SNMP Discovery Port. The default value of 161 is automatically populated, but this can be edited if this port is already in use. The Port number availability is automatically checked, and if it is not available, a new port number must be entered.
