APC AP8853 Template?

Post by theozsnowman »

Im trying to add in some AP8853 PDU's to Cacti and im not able to find any templates for them and im a newbie when it comes to Cacti

I have tried the following templates:

APC - Metered PDU Multi-Bank
APC - Metered PDU Single-Bank
APC 3-Phase Rack PDU
APC 8853 PDU Power Usage

that i found in the forums but none seem to generate any templates.

the snmp is using V1 and is connecting and working properly in cacti

what am i missing or do i need to adjust the template or something?

Post a the output of snmpwalk from each device as follows:

Code: Select all

export MIBS=All
snmpwalk -v2c -c mycommunity -On myhost .1.3
snmpwalk -v2c -c mycommunity myhost .1.3
The MIBS=All should load your APC mibs if they are present.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

This is the OID that includes APC stuff specifically, but make sure you also download the MIB for your device and place it in the appropriate location and then again run the walk against the OID in both methods. The first shows just the numeric OID's and the second should include the names for those OID's.

.1.3.6.1.4.1.318.
