Introduction

Product Description

Functionality

American Power Conversion’s Web/SNMP Management SmartSlot Card (APC part number AP9606) is a web-based UPS Management product that uses multiple, open standards such as Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP to provide full management of UPS systems. Through the Web/ SNMP Management SmartSlot Card, which is referred to as the Management Card in this guide, you can monitor and configure your APC UPS systems to shut down and reboot your computer systems.
The Management Card can be installed into the following APC devices:
UPS systems with card slots: Smart-UPS
SmartSlot Expansion Chassis (AP9600)
SmartSlot Expansion Triple Chassis (AP9604, AP9604R, or

In addition to connecting the UPS to an Ethernet net­work, the Management Card is used to manage MasterSwitch II and MasterSwitch plus power distribu­tion units, and the standalo ne Environment al Monit oring Unit. In order to provide such a range of support to spe­cific devices, the Management Card uses different firmware application layers to control each device. For more information on how a Management Card is used with the MasterSwitch devices and the Environmental Monitoring Unit, see the documentation for those products.

Product Description

Management Card versions

Initial set-up

The Management Card (v3.0.0) has firmware that provides an operating system (AOS) layer (aos300.bin), and one of three available application layers. Which application firmware a Management Card uses depends on the UPS it supports.
Symmetra Power Array (sy300.bin)
Smart-UPS and Matrix-UPS (sumx300.bin)
Silcon DP300E series UPS (dp3e300.bin)
You must define three TCP/I P settings f or the Management Card before it can operate on the network.

Introduction

Watchdog Features

Overview

Network interface watchdog mechanism

The role of the Default Gateway in resetting the network timer

The Management Card is designed to recover from unanticipated inputs. Through the use of internal, system-wide watchdog mechanisms, the Management Card can detect most internal problems and reboot itself to recover.
The Management Card implements numerous internal watchdog mechanisms to protect itself from becoming inaccessible over the network. For Example, if wit hin a se ven-minut e period t he Management Card does not receive any network traffic (either direct, such as SNMP, or broadcast, such as an Address Resolution Protocol [ARP] request) it assumes that there is a problem with its network interface and reboots itself.
Most networks will have some level of broadcast traffic which will be received by the Management Card and reset the seven-minute timer to zero. But since it is not desirable for the Management Card to reboot just because the network is quiet, the Management Card will attempt to contact the Default Gateway once every five minutes. If the gateway is present, it will respond to the Management Card and the seven-minute timer will be reset to zero.
If your application does not require a gateway or does not have one, specify the IP address of a computer on the same subnet which is running on the network most of the time. This will have the same effect as configuring a gateway.
