6.3 The Alpha MIBs
6.3.1 The Alpha MIB Structure
Measurements and settings for the power supply, generator, batteries and DSM are accessed
using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) through the Alpha Management Information
Base (MIB) les.
The Alpha MIB is dened within the enterprise branch of the MIB tree starting at 1.3.6.1.4.1.926
and is organized into the following branches:
6.0 Data Management
Refer to Section 10.0, Alpha MIB Parameters for further details regarding the Alpha MIBs.
Alpha CIB Tables – atiTables (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.2.1)
Power supply, generator, battery and DSM3 data and settings are located in the CIB Tables branch (atiCibTables). The tables are sorted
into the following categories:
1. Discretes – XM3 major alarms & installed XM3 options.
2. Analogs – Voltages, currents, frequencies, temperatures.
3. Counters – Batteries per string, number of strings, XM3 Self Test schedule, device address, total run time and conguration settings.
4. Version – Device version information.
Alpha Management – atiManagement (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.3)
Advanced DSM3 settings are located in the Alpha management branch (atiManagement) and the settings are split between SNMP and
system-related settings.
1. SNMP Management – atiMgntSnmp (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.3.1)
SNMP Trap tables, SNMP access, Community Strings and SNMP Trap controls.
1.1 SNMP Trap Table – Table of SNMP trap addresses.
1.2 SNMP Access Table – Table of SNMP access addresses.
1.3 SNMP Access – Device accessibility via SNMPv1 & SNMPv2.
1.4 CPE Mode – Enable/disable Dual IP and Static IP settings.
1.5 Community Strings – Get, set and trap community strings.
1.6 SNMP Trap controls – Trap on normal, send count, SNMP timeout.
2. System Management – atiMgmtSys (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.3.2)
Download, Web server, SNTP server IP addresses, enclosure environmental controller, general controls (tamper polarity).
2.1 Download – DSM3 Proprietary Conguration File settings.
2.2 System Access – Enable/disable Web Page & Text Page - applies to DSM1 & DSM2 only.
2.3 HTTP Access – Enable/disable Web page – DSM3.
2.4 System Servers – Simple Network Time Protocol server (SNTP) IP address.
2.5 Temperature Manager – Battery heater mat or cooler settings.
2.6 Phone Home – IP address and timer settings.
2.7 General Controls – Tamper switch polarity and internal bus data size.
2.8 General Info – Base conguration of the device. i.e. DSM3, DSM3 Series, DPM.
2.9 Non-volatile Memory Defaults – Factory and custom defaults.
Alpha Product Platforms – atiProductPlatforms (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.4)
System power supply parameters are located the Alpha Product Platforms branch (atiProductPlatforms).
1. Broadband UPS
System View – Self Test, alarms, scalars, and counters reported by the host device.
1.1 Selects – Start/stop and prevention and System Control Manager.
1.2 Alarms – Status of major and minor alarm, Self Test, temperature probe and input power.
1.3 Scalars – Power supply input voltage, frequency and current. Battery voltage and temperature. Charger settings.
1.4 Counters – Self Test and inverter counters.
2. System Logs – atiProductPlatforms (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.4.1.2)
2.1 Events Table
2.2 Cong Table
2.3 Perform Table
3. System Apps – atiProductPlatforms (1.3.6.1.4.1.926.1.4.1.3)
3.1 Power Supply Health
