Great information Rick! I like you idea of gutting the unit. Our units are set with static IP addresses. They are at least a year old now...maybe they changed that to only allow DHCP in later revisions? Best, Brad -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

I'm tempted to do something like that but not worry about the transfer switch. I'd just run off of 12 vdc all of the time. No power issues from outside that way! Marlon (509) 982-2181 Equipment sales (408) 907-6910 (Vonage)Consulting

Hello Russ, I believe the same as Rick...APC BH500NET. Nice little units, but I wish they had an Ethernet switch built-in rather than just a port. In all honesty I don't think I'd want production traffic passing through a UPS anyway, so the single port is fine. Technical Parameters Model:

I use an APC SU700NET with an AP9617 SNMP card. In the firmware version that I have (SNMP card, that is), there are 151 'events' for which you can specify actions. You can set severity (Severe, Warning, Informational) on each event. Each severity can be configured to trigger alarms (Syslog,

That's the BH500NET UPS board. It has an Ethernet port along with surge protected phone line ports etc. Here is one of many URLs I found with a quick search. http://www.apcguard.com/PC_Workstation_BH500NET.asp Brad -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Are you able to enter a full IP address set into the unit with the old firmware? The new firmware allows you to specify the IP address, but not the subnet or default gateway... This is what is keeping me from using them as I'd wish Russ Kreigh wrote: Ah, we are running a newer Web

Well...after looking and looking I don't see anywhere to set the IP configuration via my web interface. If memory serves me correctly I had to use an APC software configuration tool in order to set the IP address. Similar to what the cheapo DLink cameras require. I'll have to hunt for that tool

The core issue all these mesh networks is they were not built with proper density which by our calculations for a network the size of mountain view would be about 45 nodes per sq mile, instead of the 30-32 nodes per square mile implemented. YMMV... - Jeff On 8/30/06 9:29 AM, Patrick
