SECURITY ALERT:
The Get and Set, community name strings are generally configured with default
SECURITY ALERT:
values of Public and Private, respectively. These community name strings
function as passwords for their respective SNMP operation. It is always a good
idea to change these community name strings to something other than the
default values. If a NMS is in operation on the network, whatever these values
are changed to must be coordinated with its administrator. If the defaults are left
administered this could create a serious security issue. For example, the
default Set community name string, with its widely known value of Private, could
be used to shut down power to the UPS loads via an SNMP message.
7. When completed, disconnect the services laptop computer from the UPS.
8. Connect one end of a CAT5 cable to the RJ45 connector on the UPS's SNMP module and
the other end to the next available port on the Ethernet switch for the control network.

Setting selected traps (alarming)

The default is to set all traps, which may result in large log entries. Therefore, only set the
following traps. See the User's Guide that comes with the SNMP module for the menus and
commands for setting these traps.
UPS on Battery—Indicates AC fail with pending shutdown based on battery reserve
available
UPS in Bypass—Failure either Failed UPS or overload
Replace battery—Failure of periodic (28-day) battery test indicating battery needs to be
replaced.
