•If a device console is connected, the user can access the console of the target device.

•If a terminal is connected, the user can connect from the terminal to the console server and access other servers.

•If a modem is connected, a user can dial in and access the console server and connected devices.

•If an IPDU is connected, a user can manage power for devices connected to the outlets of the IPDU.

To log into the web manager:

1.Type the console server’s IP address in your browser’s address field.

NOTE: Refer to Chapter 2 for requirements to start the web manager.

2.Press Enter. The web manager Login form is displayed.
