NOTE

       This  man  page  only  documents  the hardware-specific features of the
       snmp-ups driver.  For information about the core  driver,  see  nutups-
       drv(8).

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       The  new  snmp-ups  driver  supports a wide range of devices by loading
       various MIBS:

       ietf:  UPS that is RFC 1628 (UPS MIB) compliant, ie  MGE  UPS  SYSTEMS,
              Liebert, perhaps others (default)

       mge:   MGE UPS SYSTEMS devices with SNMP cards (ref 66062, 66045, 66074
              and 66244)

       apcc:  APC AP9606 APC Web/SNMP management card, perhaps others

       netvision:
              Socomec Sicon UPS with Netvision Web/SNMP management card/exter-
              nal box

       pw:    Powerware devices with ConnectUPS SNMP cards

EXTRA ARGUMENTS

       This   driver   supports   the   following  optional  settings  in  the
       ups.conf(5):


       mibs=name
              Set MIB compliance (default=auto,  allowed  ietf,mge,apcc,netvi-
              sion,pw).   With auto the driver will try a select set of objets
              untill it finds one that the device responds to.


       community=name
              Set community name (default = public).  Note that you require  a
              RW  community name to perform UPS settings (as for a powerdown).


       snmp_version=version
              Set SNMP version (default = v1, the other allowed value is v2c)


       pollfreq=value
              Set  polling  frequency  in  seconds,  to  reduce  network  flow
              (default=30)


       notransferoids
              Disable the monitoring of the low and high voltage transfer OIDs

       not built by default. This is mainly due to  the  fact  that  there  is
       still no proper upsdrv_shutdown() function implemented !

INSTALLATION

       This  driver  is not built by default.  You can build it by using "con-
       figure --with-snmp=yes" before calling make.

IMPLEMENTATION

       The hostname of the UPS is specified with the "port" value in ups.conf,
       i.e.:

            [snmp]
                 driver = snmp-ups
                 port = snmp-ups.example.com
                 community = public
                 snmp_version = v1
                 mibs = ietf
                 pollfreq = 15
