EATON-OIDS

Eaton OID registration MIB defining the top-level enterprise OID hierarchy for Eaton power management products.

EATON-OIDS is the root enterprise registration MIB for Eaton Corporation's SNMP-manageable power products, with roots tracing back through Exide Electronics and Powerware, defining the top-level OID branches - including the well-known "xups" tree - under which Eaton's actual UPS and power-management MIB modules are registered. It is itself a structural/registration module containing OID assignment nodes such as xupsMIB, xupsEnvironment, xupsIoMIB, and powerVision rather than live data objects. Even so, the subtree names strongly hint at its purpose: monitoring UPS hardware health such as battery status, output load, input/output voltage, and environmental sensors (temperature/humidity probes) that are exposed by the xups* MIBs registered beneath this tree. It underpins Eaton's whole family of UPS/PDU MIBs (commonly known as the XUPS-MIB suite) and is a prerequisite for compiling any of them, so any EATON-OIDS MIB compilation must succeed first or the dependent xups* modules will fail to load in an SNMP manager. It is deployed wherever Eaton, Powerware, or Exide-branded UPS and power distribution equipment is monitored via SNMP, typically in data centers and server rooms.

EATON-OIDS itself only defines registration nodes (xupsMIB, xupsEnvironment, xupsIoMIB, powerVision) rather than runtime data; the actual battery-status, load, and environmental readings live in the XUPS-MIB module registered under this tree, so this module has no data of its own to poll.
