.P
fence_tripplite_snmp - Fence agent for Tripplife over SNMP (symlink)

.SH DESCRIPTION
.P
fence_apc_snmp is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the APC network power switch or Tripplite PDU devices.It logs into a device via SNMP and reboots a specified outlet. It supports SNMP v1, v2c, v3 with all combinations of  authenticity/privacy settings.
.P
fence_apc_snmp accepts options on the command line as well
as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the
agent. fence_apc_snmp can be run by itself with command
line options.  This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off
from scripts.
