APC AP95100 Power supplier AP95100 User Manual

Discovery processes run automatically according to the schedule you define. However, if you want to run 
a discovery process right away, select the discovery setting from the Discovery task window and then 
click Start. To halt a currently running discovery process, select the entry that corresponds to the 
discovery process and then click Stop.

When enabled DHCP LAN discovery will automatically search the internal DHCP LAN for management 
devices or supported SNMP devices. If new devices are discovered, InfraStruXure Central will add them 
to the appropriate device groups automatically.

To enable DHCP LAN discovery, check the Enable internal DHCP LAN discovery check box. By 
default, the discovery process will attempt to use the default SNMP read community string “public” when 
discovering and communicating with any supported SNMP-based devices on the internal DHCP LAN. If 
necessary, you can add additional read community strings that will be used when attempting to 
communicate with SNMP devices on the internal DHCP LAN. To add a community string type the new 
string in the text entry field located beneath the SNMP Read Communities selection list and then click 
Add.

InfraStruXure Central will also automatically discover the following APC protocol PDU devices if they 
are connected to the internal DHCP LAN:

• 3 Phase Power Distribution Units:

– AP7601

– AP7601J

– AP7601X135

– AP7602

– AP7602X135

– AP7608

– AP7610

– AP7651

– AP7652

– AP7658

• 1 Phase Power Distribution Units:

– AP7611

– AP7620

– AP7621

– AP7622

The DHCP LAN pane is enabled only if the internal DHCP LAN functionality has been 
enabled on your server. Once enabled, if internal DHCP LAN functionality is later 
disabled then DHCP LAN discovery will automatically be disabled as well.
