Perhaps I am confused. Why would you poll for power supply status when the device is capable of sending you a trap when the power supply status changes? I just looked in my Netsight and saw forty-six different traps relating to AC power supplies. I didn't count but it looks like there are another forty-six traps for DC power supplies as well.

Polling from within Netsight seems to be limited to just discovery making sure the switch is up but I don't see a way to look for specific OIDs as you have defined below. Am I missing something or are you doing this from outside of Netsight, e.g. Nagios?

I've included an example for OIDs and values fo a C5: Number and instances of power supplies SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.1.101 = INTEGER: 101 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.1.102 = INTEGER: 102 State of power supplies [infoNotAvailable(1), notInstalled(2), installedAndOperating(3), installedAndNotOperating(4)] SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.2.101 = INTEGER: 3 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.2.102 = INTEGER: 2 Redundancy status of power supplies [redundant(1), notRedundant(2), notSupported(3)] SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.4.101 = INTEGER: 1 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.2.1.1.4.102 = INTEGER: 1 --> The information provided by these OID must be interpreted in dependancy on "State of power supplies" and are valid only if more than one power supply is installed (built in and external power supply). Number of fan modules SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.1.101 = INTEGER: 101 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.1.102 = INTEGER: 102 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.1.103 = INTEGER: 103 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.1.104 = INTEGER: 104 State of fan modules [infoNotAvailable(1), notInstalled(2), installedAndOperating(3), installedAndNotOperating(4)] SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.2.101 = INTEGER: 3 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.2.102 = INTEGER: 2 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.2.103 = INTEGER: 3 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.52.4.3.1.3.1.1.2.104 = INTEGER: 2 In case of fan failures syslog messages are been generated.
