DUAL-PORT NETWORK POWER SWITCH

NOTES

If you want to allow a single user to access both switched plugs, assign the same user password to both plugs.

If you want to “split” plug access between two different users (each user controls their own plug), then assign a different user password to each plug.

3.Boot Delay: During a boot cycle, power to the plug is first switched off and then switched back on. The boot delay is the length of time which elapses between the time when power is switched off and the time that power is restored. The boot delay can be 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 seconds. (Default determined by option switch 2; Factory setting = 5 seconds.)

4.Power Up Default: Determines how this plug will react when the /D (default) command is invoked, or after a power interruption. Each plug can be automatically switched on or off as specified by the power-up default. (Default = On.)

After plug parameters have been defined, press [Esc] to exit from the Plug Parameters menu.

4.6 Network Parameters

To communicate with the Dual-Port Network Power Switch via network, the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address must first be defined via the Network Parameters menu. If desired, this menu also allows you to implement IP security features, which can restrict command mode access based on the user’s IP address.

Settings for network parameters depend upon the configuration of your individual network. Please contact your network administrator for appropriate settings, then assign parameters as described in this section.

To access the Network Parameters menu (Figure 4-5), type /N and press [Enter]. Note that this menu is not available in user mode.
