Programmable outlet (controlled outlet):
Outlet that can be remote-switched on or off. In Solution-Pac / WAN, the UM-Console+ or UM-Client
components enable management of such outlets.
REBOOT –
To restart a system after an interruption.
– To perform an obstacle-free "reboot", it is essential that the system is correctly and carefully shut
down beforehand.
– The reboot is usually automatic if the computer is re-supplied with electricity (from the mains or from

SNMP (SIMPLE NETWORK MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL)
Protocol used to remote-supervise, administrate and control devices connected to a company network.
SNMP agent:
Name of a device used to communicate data from one system (like a UPS) over a network.
(SNMP/Web Card or the UM-Agent software): supervises the UPS, informs the UM-Clients of events
occurring on the UPS by means of SNMP traps and manages UPS shutdowns and restarts
Solution-Pac / WAN:
Set of software components (UM-Console(+), UM-Client, UM-Agent) enabling protection of IT
equipment connected to the TCP-IP/SNMP network.
Subnet mask:
Mask of bits used to identify and differentiate the network address and the equipment address in an IP
address.
Normally, the mask is automatically determined by the class of address, which defines in a unique
manner the network part/equipment part division of the IP address.
- Class A: internet address: 255.0.0.0.
- Class B: internet address: 255.255.0.0.
- Class C: internet address: 255.255.255.0.
TCP/IP
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. Common name of a series of protocols developed by
the DOD in the US to help build Internet networks throughout the world.
Telnet
Internet protocol used for terminal emulation, i.e. enabling a computer to connect with a server as if it
was a simple terminal locally connected to this server.
Trap (SNMP)
This term describes an event that affects an MIB variable. Traps are sent to the manager, which is
programmed to perform specific tasks upon reception of the traps.
UM-Client
UM-Client is a software package (SNMP manager) that uses the information sent by the agent
dedicated to the MGE UPS in order to inform users of the computer of the power quality status.
In case of a power failure, UM-Client triggers a graceful shutdown procedure at the end of a preset
battery runtime.
