Initial setup
You must define the following three TCP/IP settings for the Switched Rack
PDU before it can operate on the network:
• IP address of the Rack PDU
• Subnet mask
• IP address of the default gateway
The Rack PDU does not provide power protection. Therefore,
APC does not recommend plugging a unit directly into any
unprotected power source, such as a wall outlet.

To configure the TCP/IP settings, see the Installation and Quick
Start manual provided as a PDF file on the Utility CD that came
with your Rack PDU and as a printed manual.
