    The SNMPWEBCARD can also send SNMP traps or email messages to the addresses you specify, alerting you automatically to events such as power failures. * SNMPWEBCARD is preinstalled in Tripp Lite Monitored and Switched PDUs, which can be identified by the presence of “MN” or “NET” in the model name. SNMPWECARD is also preinstalled in SRCOOLNET. 1.1 System Requirements • Tripp Lite UPS system, PDU, or cooling unit with compatible accessory slot or preinstalled SNMPWEBCARD.
