Description: Manages BATM Advanced Communication UPS integration monitoring including battery status, input power, and alarm notifications.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is PRVT-UPS-MIB?

PRVT-UPS-MIB is a vendor-specific enterprise MIB from BATM Advanced Communication dedicated to monitoring a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) connected to one of its switches or "ipSwitch" platforms. Per its module description it focuses entirely on the UPS's own status rather than switch configuration. It is explicitly a hardware/environmental health monitoring MIB, covering battery status, input power presence, and alarm conditions for the attached UPS, which are critical for detecting an impending power loss before the switch itself goes down. It likely raises its fault conditions through the related PRVT-ALARM-MIB present on the same platform. It is typically deployed on BATM switches installed in locations, such as remote cabinets or telecom huts, where an external or integrated UPS protects against utility power interruptions. Engineers can download the PRVT-UPS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PRVT-UPS-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

BATM Advanced Communication switches/ipSwitch platforms with attached UPS

Monitoring Examples

No sample_objects were provided for this MIB in the data given, so a concrete table/object-level monitoring scenario cannot be honestly constructed; based on the module description, an admin would typically poll UPS battery charge/status and input-power-presence objects to be alerted before a utility power failure drains the UPS and takes the switch offline, but the exact object names are not available in this batch.

What Can Be Monitored

UPS battery status
UPS input power presence
UPS alarm/fault condition

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using upsConnectedStatus OID:

Select a BATM Advanced Communication switch/ipSwitch platform with an attached UPS as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type upsConnectedStatus into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. This object indicates, if a UPS is connected to the device. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is anything other than 'connected', since that indicates the condition this object reports has changed to one worth investigating. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.

OIDs

OID symbolic	OID numeric	Type	Access	Description
prvtUPSMib	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103			MIB module for monitoring the UPS connected to switch or ipSwitch
prvtUPSNotifications	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.0
NTF upsStatusChange	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.0.1			The upsStatusChange trap indicates that the sending agent monitor detected a change in the status of the external UPS, connected to the device.
upsStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.1
INT upsConnectedStatusEx	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.1.1	INTEGER	read-only	This object indicates, if a UPS is connected to the device.
INT upsLinePowerStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.1.2	INTEGER	read-only	This object indicates the external AD power line status: the UPS is supplying the power from the internal battery or from an external AC power connection.
INT upsBatteryStorageStatus	1.3.6.1.4.1.738.1.5.103.1.3	INTEGER	read-only	This object shows the estimated time left until the UPS battery will discharge to the level at which the UPS must shutdown.
