Access a Configured Network Management Card

Overview

After the Network Management Card is running on your network, you can access the configured Network Management Card through the following interfaces:

•Web interface (HTTP or HTTPS protocol)

•Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH)

•SNMP

•FTP or Secure CoPy (SCP) to upgrade firmware

•Modbus

For more information on the interfaces, see the User’s Guide.

Web interface

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer® (IE) 5.5 and higher (on Windows operating systems only), Mozilla- based browsers that support Firefox 1.x (on all operating systems), or Netscape® 7.x and higher (on all operating systems) to access the Web interface of the cooling unit. Other commonly available browsers may also work but have not been fully tested by APC.

You can use either of the following protocols when you use the Web interface:

•The HTTP protocol (enabled by default), which provides authentication by user name and password but no encryption.

•The HTTPS protocol, which provides extra security through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL); encrypts user names, passwords, and data being transmitted; and authenticates the Network Management Card by means of digital certificates.

To access the Web interface and configure the security of your device on the network:

1.Address the Network Management Card by its IP address or DNS name (if configured).

2.Enter the user name and password (by default, apc and apc for an Administrator).

3.To enable or disable the HTTP or HTTPS protocols, use the Network menu on the Administration tab, and select the Access option under the Web heading on the left navigation menu.

For more information on selecting and configuring network security, see the Security Handbook, available on the Utility CD or from the APC Web site, www.apc.com.
