SNMP
The Sentry family of products supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This
allows network management systems to use SNMP requests to retrieve information and control power
for the individual outlets.
The Sentry includes an SNMP v1 agent supporting standard MIB I and MIB II objects. A private
enterprise MIB extension (Sentry3 MIB) is also supported to provide remote power control.
NOTE: For security, SNMP support is disabled by default.
