		Quick Configuration for a Metered PDU
Local access to the	You can use a local computer to connect to the PDU to access the control
control console	console.
	1.	Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service
		which uses that port.
	2.	Use the configuration cable (940-0144) to connect the selected port
		to the serial port on the front panel of the PDU.
	3.	Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) and configure
		the selected port for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and
		no flow control, and save the changes.
	4.	Press ENTER to display the User Name prompt.
	5.	Use apc for the user name and password.
	6.	See “Control console” on page 13 to finish the configuration.
Remote access to the	From any computer on the same subnet as the PDU, you can use ARP
control console	and Ping to assign an IP address to the PDU, and then use Telnet to
	access that PDU’s control console and configure the needed TCP/IP
	settings.
		After the PDU has its IP address configured, you can use
		Telnet, without first using ARP and Ping, to access that
		PDU.
	Note
	1.	Use ARP to define an IP address for the PDU, and use the PDU’s
		MAC address in the ARP command. For example, to define an IP
		address of 156.205.14.141 for the PDU that has a MAC address of 00
		c0 b7 63 9f 67, use one of the following commands:
		– Windows command format:

arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67

– LINUX command format:

arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67

For the MAC address, look on the bottom of the PDU or on the Quality Assurance slip included in the package.

Note

2.Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the ARP command. For example:

– Windows command format:

ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113

– LINUX command format:

ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113
