USER’S GUIDE

Switched Rack PDU

Control Console

Log On

Overview

You can use either a local (serial) connection, or a remote (Telnet or SSH) connection

to access the control console.

Use case-sensitive User Name and Password entries to log on (by default, apc and

apc for an Administrator, or device and apc for a Device User). A Read-Only User has

no access to the control console.

Remote access to the control console

You can access the control console through Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH). Telnet is

enabled by default. Enabling SSH disables Telnet.

To enable or disable these access methods:

• In the Web interface, on the Administration tab, select Network on the top menu

bar, and then the access option under Console on the left navigation menu.

• In the control console, use the Telnet/SSH option of the Network menu.

Telnet for basic access. Telnet provides the basic security of authentication by user

name and password, but not the high-security benefits of encryption. To use Telnet to

access the control console:

1. From a computer on the same network as the Rack PDU, at a command prompt,

type telnet and the System IP address for the Rack PDU (for example

telnet

139.225.6.133, when the Rack PDU uses the default Telnet port of 23), and press

ENTER.

If you cannot remember your user name or password, see

Recover From a Lost Password.
