Chapter 1: PowerNet MIB
Structure
This chapter categorizes the PowerNet MIB into its major OID and trap components as follows:
• PowerNet MIB Traps
• PowerNet MIB OIDs
PowerNet MIB Traps
Any Management Card, PowerNet Agent, or MasterSwitch unit can send traps to an NMS when
specific events occur. The NMS does not need the PowerNet MIB to receive the trap, but it does need
the MIB to interpret the trap’s meaning. Also, the trap receiver definitions that a particular device or
Agent uses determines which NMSs can receive traps.
For more information on traps, see Chapter 9, PowerNet MIB Traps.
PowerNet MIB OIDs
The PowerNet MIB OIDs allow an NMS to use its SNMP browser to manage any of the following:
• A Management Card, its UPS and an Environmental Monitor
• A PowerNet Agent, its UPS and Environmental Monitor
• A MasterSwitch unit
However, the NMS can manage a device only if the SNMP access controls of that device allow the
NMS to have SNMP access. (A PowerNet Agent, which has limited control over a UPS, does not use
SNMP access controls.)
The following sections further explain how to use OIDs:
• SNMP Access Controls
• SNMP Browser Structure
• PowerNet MIB OIDs Structure
• Tabled OIDs
