UPS Probe

RouterOS The Dude

I created a SNMP probe in Dude, that checks OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.1.1.0.

From what I have found on the web the vaules for this OID could be:
1 unknown
2 Online
3 On Battery
4 On Smart Boost
5 Timed Sleeping
6 Software Bypass
7 Off
8 Rebooting
9 Switched Bypass
10 Hardware Failure Bypass
11 Sleeping Until Power Return
12 On Smart Trim

I set the probe to check for the value be equal to 2. My battey spens most of its time on 2 but some time is changes to 12. I have not found any information to explain what that is. But it seems to be in good condition. Is their a way for me to make the value = 2 or 12. So if it is 2 or if it is 12 then that is ok.

-Thanks

at the moment it is not possible to make snmp probe with such logic.

Thank you for the information, please add this to the feature request.

Also I saw that a probe for radius was added. How can I change the secret, username and password it is sending?

you can change the contents of UDP packet that is sent in any way, but in
general it is not required to successfully authenticate with radius server,
dude just checks if reasonable response is received. (dude server should be
added to radius servers shared secret list).

I have an APC smart 5000 and and am also using SNMP to monitor it. you can monitor battery level and ups load.

APC OID’s

status
1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.1.1.0
the status codes listed above seem the same.

temperature
1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.2.0
integer gauge degrees celcius

load
1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.2.3.0
integer gauge 0-100

battery capacity
1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.2.2.1.0
integer gauge 0-100

You could alert if the battery capacity goes below 98% as opposed to alerting on the status. Luckily our APC stays in mode 2.

I have not found any information to explain what that is.

Condition 12 “Smart Trim” is probably an over or under volt situation where the UPS has to either supply some power, or artificially limit voltage because of a slight over-volt. If either condition goes to far, then the UPS switches to battery.
