You can change the protocol only on APC SNMPv1 devices that support SNMPv3. For information about whether an APC SNMP device supports SNMPv3, consult the device documentation.
Before you begin, it is recommended you view and confirm the devices you want to convert from SNMPv1 to SNMPv3 in the "Device Scan Settings" display, accessed from the SNMP Device Communication Settings option in the Device menu.
Select the APC SNMP Device Configuration option in the Device menu.
Select Configure Devices.
Select the APC SNMPv3 device you want to use as the source.
Click Retrieve Device Settings.
Click Next to select the devices you want to convert to SNMPv3.
To ensure only the devices you want to convert to SNMPv3 are selected, you can checkmark Select/Deselect All to clear the list, then checkmark the devices to include.
Expand SNMPv1 Settings and checkmark the Access option.
Double-click the Access option under SNMPv1 Settings, or select the Access option and click Edit, to change its setting to Disabled, if necessary.
Uncheck Authentication options 1 - 4, if necessary.
Expand the SNMPv3 Settings option.
Double-click the Access option under SNMPv3 Settings, or select the Access option and click Edit, to change its setting to Enabled, if necessary.
Expand the Authentication options 1 - 4 you want to use, select the Access option under each option, and click Edit, to change its setting to Enabled, if necessary.
Checkmark other available options to change their settings, if necessary.
The security settings on some target devices might require setting user passwords, authentication phrases, and encryption phrases manually at the device user interface.
Click Finish.
You can monitor progress applying the settings to the selected devices in the Device Configuration Status view, accessed from the Device option in the Window menu.
Device Definition Files (DDF) were updated in Data Center Expert 7.4.3 to address a recently discovered issue in Data Center Expert v7.4.0, v7.4.1, and v7.4.2. Earlier Data Center Expert versions are not affected.
Affected devices have duplicate sensor entries in Data Center Expert, with sensor status reported as unplugged.
The values for the following sensors could not be corrected, causing some sensors to report as unplugged in DCE 7.4.3.
You can delete the unplugged sensors, but historical sensor data will be lost. Otherwise, you can leave the sensor in the unplugged state to maintain historical data. Contact your local technical support if you have questions about a specific sensor value.
