Nut upsuser - Mar 2014 - AP9630 AES Support

Hello again! Your suggestions the other day did work so thank you! I do
have one more question for you guys though. APC AP9630 SNMP monitoring card
is listed in the HCL and next to it there is privProtocol = AES. Does this
mean only AES works or AES doesn't work? I saw the archived mailing lists
were it looked like it only worked with the AES protocol, though in my set
up it works with everything else but AES. Just want to verify which one is
correct. Thanks!

We rely on mailing list reports for the SNMP side of things. Typically, the HCL
lists parameters which are needed to make things work. However, if it turns out
to be an issue elsewhere (such as a bug in that version of the net-snmp
library), we won't necessarily know unless someone else works through all of
the possibilities.

So that we have it all in one place: you're using an APC9630 card with which
version of NUT, which firmware version on the card, and which version of
net-snmp?

Charles,
    So I was correct in my assumption that AES should of worked. Thanks for
clarifying that. To answer your questions:

Card: APC AP9630
Version: v6.1.1 - We had another version on before but I don't remember
which one it was. Sorry.
Nut Version: 2.6.5-2.el6 for nut and nut-client
Net-snmp, net-snmp libs, and net-snmp-utils version: 5.5-44el6
We are using centOS 6.4 as our OS. All of the packages were installed via
src.rpms as well.

Hopefully this answers all of your questions if not I'll do my best to get
that information for you. Thanks for the help!

Shade
