4 Cyclades ACS 6000 Advanced Console Server Installation/Administration/User Guide
The console server SNMP agent supports SNMP v1/v2 and v3, MIB-II and Enterprise MIB. For
more information, see
SNMP Configuration on page 82.
NOTE: The text files with the Enterprise MIB (ACS6000-MIB.asn) and the TRAP MIB (ACS6000-TRAP-MIB.asn)
are available in the appliance under the /usr/local/mibs directory.
Data logging, notifications, alarms and data buffering
An administrator can set up data logging, notifications and alarms to alert administrators of
problems with email, SMS, SNMP trap or DSView 3 software notifications. An administrator can
also store buffered data locally, remotely or with DSView 3 management software. Messages about
the console server and connected servers or devices can also be sent to syslog servers.
Power management
The ACS 6000 console server enables users who are authorized for power management to turn
power on, turn power off and reset devices plugged into a connected power distribution unit (PDU).
The power devices can be connected to any ACS serial port or to the AUX/Modem port (if an
internal modem is not installed). For more information, see
Power Management on page 86.
Auto discovery
An administrator can enable auto discovery to find the hostname of a serial port. Auto discovery’s
default probe and answer strings have a broad range. An administrator can configure site-specific
probe and answer strings. Auto discovery can also be configured through DSView 3 software.
