How to Access the Rack ATS Interfaces
Overview
After the Rack ATS is running on your network, you can use the interfaces summarized here to access the unit.
For more information on the interfaces, see the User’s Guide.
Web interface
Use Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 5.5 or higher (on Windows operating systems only), Firefox, version 1.x, by Mozilla Corporation (on all operating systems), or Netscape® 7.x or higher (on all operating systems) to access the Rack ATS through its Web interface. Other commonly available browsers also may work but have not been fully tested by APC. To use the Web browser to configure Rack ATS options or to view the event and data logs, you can use either of the following protocols:
•The HTTP protocol (enabled by default), which provides authentication by user name and password but no encryption.
•The more secure HTTPS protocol, which provides extra security through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and encrypts user names, passwords, and data being transmitted. It also provides authentication of Rack ATSs by means of digital certificates.
To access the Web interface and configure the security of your unit on the network:
1.Access the Rack ATS 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.Select and configure the type of security you want by selecting the Administration tab, and then the Security menu from the top menu bar (This option is available only for Administrators).
See the Security Handbook, available on the Utility CD or from the APC Web site, www.apc.com, for more information on selecting and configuring network security.
Telnet and SSH
You can access the control console through Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH), depending on which is enabled. (An Administrator can enable these access methods through the Telnet/SSH option of the Network menu). By default, Telnet is enabled. Enabling SSH automatically disables Telnet.
