OUTLET MANAGED PDU

2.Status Screen Suppressed: The plug status screen will not be automatically displayed after commands are successfully executed. Note however, that the /S command can still be invoked to display the status screen as needed.

3."Sure?" Prompt Suppressed: All commands are executed without prompting for user confirmation.

4.Error Messages Suppressed: Most error messages will be suppressed. Note however, that an error message will still be generated if commands are invoked using invalid formats or arguments.

All other status display and configuration commands will still function as normal.

5.4.User Accounts

Each time you attempt to access command mode, you will be prompted to enter a username and password. The username/password entered at login determine which outlet(s) you will be allowed to control and what type of commands you will be allowed to invoke. Each username/password combination is defined within a "user account."

The Outlet Managed PDU allows up to 128 user accounts; each account includes a username, password, security level, plug access rights, service access rights and an optional callback number.
