Hello
We supprt a production faciltiy that uses an Emerson DeltaV DCS. Most recently, my customer has asked to network in and retrieve info from the control power UPS. The control power UPS is an Eaton Ferrups UPS. Eaton does provide a SNMP/web adaptor IP appliance. With the SNMP/web adaptor, Eaton provides a MIB file associated with this SNMP/web adaptor. Per Eaton, I need to load/install this MIB file in the management software which will be receiving data. In the previous sentence lies the problem, what utility or software does Emerson DeltaV use as "management software" to communicate with SNMP data. I believe it would be some program or utility which resides on the Application Station. Any in-sight to this scenario would be greatly appreicated. thanks Patrick
DeltaV does not have a supported SNMP package. In the past we have tested What's Up Gold with DeltaV for collecting SNMP information. SNMP communications need to remain within DeltaV and viewed on the App station or if remote viewing is required by using a remote desktop connection to the App station.
In reply to BobHuba:
The following blog post was written by Larry Griffin last year discussing use of SNMP, but the link to the whitepaper itself is broken.

Does Bob's statement above supersede any other discussions surrounding SNMP use with DeltaV workstations, servers, switches?
Thanks!
