Description: Tracks uninterruptible power supply status, including battery level, input/output voltage, and alarm conditions.

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 UPS2-MIB?

UPS2-MIB is Cabletron Systems' enterprise-specific MIB (ctron-ups2-mib.txt, under the ctUPS branch) for monitoring uninterruptible power supplies attached to or managed alongside Cabletron network equipment. It organizes objects into functional groups: upsId (upsIdTable with upsModelType values from smartUps250 through matrixUps5000, upsSerialNumber, upsFwVersion), upsBattery (upsBatteryCapacity, upsBatteryVoltage, upsEstimatedRunTimeRemaining, upsBatteryTest/upsBatteryTestResult), upsInput/upsOutput (upsInputVoltage, upsInputFrequency, upsOutputVoltage, upsOutputPower), upsStatus (upsStatusOperational, upsStatusFault, upsStatusTemp), and upsExtMeas (upsExtMeasTemp, upsExtMeasHumidity, upsExtMeasAlarmStatus). It exposes real-time battery, input/output power, and environmental data essential for power-availability monitoring in wiring closets and data centers. It depends on the base RFC1213-MIB DisplayString convention and the vendor's CTRON-MIB-NAMES enterprise tree for its OID root. Administrators rely on UPS2-MIB SNMP monitoring to catch battery degradation or utility power loss before a UPS-backed switch stack goes dark.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in UPS2-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

  • Cabletron Systems UPS product line (SmartUPS/MatrixUPS models managed via Cabletron network equipment)

Monitoring Examples

An operator polls upsBatteryCapacity and upsEstimatedRunTimeRemaining in the upsBatteryTable to gauge how much runtime is left after a utility failure, cross-checking upsStatusOperational and upsStatusFault; a falling capacity value combined with upsStatusFault indicating a fault would signal an aging battery that needs replacement before the next outage.

What Can Be Monitored

  • battery capacity and voltage
  • estimated runtime remaining
  • input/output voltage and frequency
  • operational/fault status flags
  • extended temperature and humidity measurements
