APC AP8861, AP8886, AP88XX manual Metered Rack PDU User Guide

Page 53

Most of the web pages under the Home, Device Manager, and Environment tabs allow you to switch between Rack PDUs for viewing status and configuration/control. This switching is accomplished by selecting the Rack PDU Display ID of the unit you would like to view. This is located at the top right of each table that supports multiple Rack PDUs. The Host Rack PDU that you are logged into is always denoted with an asterisk (*) following the Display ID.

Note: The Reset/Reboot web page has many additional reset/reboot options for Rack PDU groups. These include individual Rack PDU reset to defaults, individual Rack PDU rebooting, and clearing of guest PDU lost communication alarms by removing the guests from the group.
