MIB Files
This chapter describes the Management Information Base (MIB) files available with the card. A MIB is an
information repository residing on a device in a communication network. Network management software uses
a device's MIB to manage the device. Every manageable device on a network has a MIB consisting of one or
more files that list information about the device.
Use the facilities provided by your Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management software to
access the individual MIB objects. The objects define the information available about your Power Distribution
Unit (PDU), Remote Monitor Panel (RPP), Rack Power Module (RPM), Energy Management System Upgrade
Kit (EMS-UGK), or Power Distribution Rack (PDR).
You can configure a device so that it generates a trap if a certain condition occurs, such as an alarm clearing.
The trap is sent to the management station to inform it of the occurrence.
This chapter contains an overview of MIB definitions for each of the MIB files:
l
Eaton PDU MIB
l
Eaton EMP MIB
l
Eaton Power Meter MIB
l
Eaton PowerChain Device MIB
l
Eaton Traps MIB
l
Eaton OID Assignments
l
RFC 4133 Entity MIB
l
RFC 4268 Entity State MIB
l
RFC 4268 Entity State MIB Part 2
See the MIB files for detailed information about each MIB object.
Eaton PDU MIB
The Eaton PDU MIB module contains objects and notifications for PDP, Panel, and Breaker information levels:
l
mainPDU
l
pduPanel
l
pduBreaker
mainPDU
Objects in this group describe the main PDP in the system. This group has three subgroups:
l
Nameplate Ratings subgroup. These objects provide the nominal rating values for the PDP.
l
Input Meters subgroup. These objects provide input meter values for the PDP. The subgroup contains a
table of meters by phase (normally three-phase).
l
Output Meters subgroup. These objects provide output meter values for the PDP. The subgroup contains a
table of meters by phase (normally three-phase).
pduPanel
For each panel in the system, there are subtables for:
l
Panel Ratings. These objects provide the nominal rating values for each panel.
l
Panel Meters. These objects provide total readings for all phases of the panel.
l
Panel Phase Meters. These objects provide meter readings for the panel, by phase (normally three-phase).
