It's as reliable as your network connection. Which as long as you've got a ping monitor running for the UPS, you should be all set. After you import the mibs, add the event (v8.0). The trap will start with apc*.

Is this service reliable? I want to be sure we receive messages pertaining to battery conditions, power, etc. Thanks, Adam -----Original Message----- From: Auger, Jay (IS) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 1:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] What's UP and APC Smart UPS Importance: High I set the UPS's to send SNMP traps to my WhatsUp server. Then create events to watch for with an associated alert to notify our on-call guy. Oh ya, I did this after compiling the APC MIBs into WUG. Jay -----Original Message----- From: Feind, Adam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 2:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] What's UP and APC Smart UPS I want to monitor my APC Smart UPS for power failure notifications. Currently my APC will email me if I have a power failure; however, I want my What's Up to monitor the UPS and when a power failure is detected (on battery) have What's Up send me a page instead of having the APC send an email. Anyone know how to monitor the status of the APC (on battery, discharged, battery needs replacing, etc)? Thanks in advance.
