How to Avoid Equipment Damage Disconnect power for Smart-UPS or expansion chassis You do not need to turn off a Matrix-UPS®, Symmetra® UPS, Silcon® UPS, or AIS 5000 UPS to install the Management Card. For a Matrix-UPS, however, you must put the UPS in maintenance bypass mode before you remove or install a Management Card.
How to Avoid Equipment Damage Use bypass mode for Matrix-UPS Matrix-UPS. Before you install the Management Card, put the UPS into bypass mode to continue to provide power to the load: 1. Loosen the thumbscrew at the center of the back of the UPS to remove power from the electronics unit, which contains the slot for the Management Card. The isolation unit (the part of the UPS below the thumbscrew) continues to provide power to the load. 2. Install the Management Card.
Preliminary Information Features All Network Management Cards have standard features that do the following: • Detect 10/100 Mbps connection speeds • Provide a data log accessible by File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Secure CoPy (SCP), or a Web browser • Provide UPS scheduling features • Provide an event log that is accessible by Telnet, FTP, SCP, or a Web browser • Generate system log (Syslog) messages • Enable you to configure a BOOTstrap Protocol (BOOTP) or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server t
Preliminary Information Upgrade kits (AP9618U and AP9619U) You can use an AP9618U kit to convert an AP9617 Network Management Card EX or an AP9619 Network Management Card EM into an AP9618 Network Management Card EM/ MDM. You can use an AP9619U kit to convert an AP9617 Network Management Card EX into an AP9619 Network Management Card EM.
Preliminary Information Inventory The Management Card package includes the following items: • This Installation and Quick Start Manual • Network Management Card • APC Network Management Card Utility CD • Smart-signaling cable (940-0024) • Installation of Multiple Management Cards booklet • Declaration of Conformity • Warranty registration form • Network Management Card quality assurance test slip Note Disclaimer Save the quality assurance test slip.
Installation in a UPS How to install the card for different UPS models You can install the Management Card in a card slot in a Smart-UPS, Matrix-UPS, Symmetra UPS, or AIS 5000 UPS. For a Silcon UPS, install the Management Card in a Silcon Triple Chassis Protocol Converter (AP9604S). • In a Symmetra UPS that uses more than one APC management product, you must install the APC management products in the correct order for them to operate properly.
Installation in a UPS Matrix-UPS. Before you install the Management Card, put the UPS into bypass mode to continue to provide power to the load: 1. Loosen the thumbscrew at the center of the back of the UPS to remove power from the electronics unit, which contains the slot for the Management Card. The isolation unit (the part of the UPS below the thumbscrew) continues to provide power to the load. 2. Install the Management Card. For instructions, see “Installation in a UPS” on page 6 3.
Installation in a UPS 2. Connect a network interface cable to the 10/100Base-T network connector on the Management Card. Step 3: Restore power to the card slot Step 4: Configure the Management Card 8 Restore power to the card slot to energize the Network Management Card: • For a Smart-UPS model, reconnect the UPS to its input power source, and then turn on the UPS.
Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation When to use an Expansion Chassis Use an Expansion Chassis or a Triple Expansion Chassis if the UPS has no card slot available. Use only a Silcon Triple Chassis Protocol Converter (AP9604S) with a Silcon UPS or an AIS 5000 UPS. Note When you install the Management Card in the chassis, it communicates with the UPS through the cable connection between the chassis and the UPS.
Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation Step 2: Install the Network Management Card If the UPS uses multiple APC management products, you must install them in the correct order for them to operate properly. See Installation of Multiple Management Cards, which came with the Management Card. See also The Network Management Card is sensitive to static electricity.
Quick Configuration Overview You must configure the following TCP/IP settings before the APC Network Management Card can operate on a network: • IP address of the Management Card • Subnet mask • Default gateway If a default gateway is unavailable, use the IP address of a computer that is located on the same subnet as the Management Card and that is usually running. The Management Card uses Note the default gateway to test the network when traffic is very light. Do not use the loopback address (127.0.0.
Quick Configuration APC Device IP Configuration Wizard You can use the APC Device IP Configuration Wizard at a computer running Microsoft® Windows® 2000, Windows 2003, or Windows XP to discover unconfigured Management Cards and configure their basic TCP/IP settings, one card at a time, over the network. Most software firewalls must be temporarily disabled for the Wizard to discover unconfigured Network Management Cards. Note 1.
Quick Configuration A user configuration (.ini) file can function as a BOOTP or DHCP boot file. For more information, see the TCP/IP configuration section of the Network Management Card User’s Guide, available See also from the Utility CD or the APC Web site, www.apc.com. BOOTP. For the Network Management Card to use a BOOTP server to configure its TCP/IP settings, it must find a properly configured RFC951-compliant BOOTP server.
Quick Configuration DHCP. You can use an RFC2131/RFC2132-compliant DHCP server to configure the TCP/IP settings for the Management Card. See also This section summarizes the Management Card’s communication with a DHCP server. For more detail about how a DHCP server can configure the network settings for a Management Card, see “DHCP Configuration” in the Network Management Card User’s Guide on the Utility CD. 1.
Quick Configuration Local access to the control console You can use a computer connected to the serial port on the front of the Management Card to access the control console. 1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port. 2. Use the configuration cable to connect the selected port to the serial port on the front panel of the Management Card. Use either 940-0024C, the 6-ft cable that came with your UPS, or AP9804 (990-1524), the 15-ft cable available from APC. 3.
Quick Configuration 2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the ARP command. For the IP address defined in step 1, use one of the following commands: – Windows command format: ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113 – LINUX command format: ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113 3. Use Telnet to access the Management Card at its newly assigned IP address. For example: telnet 156.205.14.141 4. Use apc for both user name and password. 5. See “Control console” on page 16 to finish the configuration.
How to Recover from a Lost Password You can use a local computer that connects to the Management Card through the serial port to access the control console. 1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port. 2. Connect the serial cable to the selected port on the computer and to the configuration port at the UPS. Use 940-0024, the 6-ft cable that came with your UPS, or AP9804, the 15 ft cable available from APC. 3.
How to Access a Configured Network Management Card Overview After the Network Management Card is running on your network, you can use the interfaces summarized here: Web interface, Telnet and SSH, SNMP, FTP and SCP, and, for an AP9618 Network Management Card, a built-in analog modem. For more information on the interfaces, see the User’s Guide. See also Web interface Use Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 5.5 or higher (on Windows operating systems only), Firefox, version 1.
How to Access a Configured Network Management Card See also Telnet/SSH See the Security Handbook: Network Management Card, available on the APC Network Management Card Utility CD or from the APC Web site, www.apc.com, for more information on selecting and configuring network security. You can access the control console through Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH), depending on which is enabled.
How to Access a Configured Network Management Card Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) After you add the PowerNet MIB to a standard SNMP MIB browser, you can use that browser to access the Network Management Card. The default read community name is public; the default read/write community name is private. To use InfraStruXure Manager to manage a UPS on the public network of an InfraStruXure system, you must have SNMP enabled in the Management Card interface.
