Use SDT Connector or the Web terminal to access serially attached consoles.

Control power devices (where authorized).

All other Management Console menu items are available to Administrators only.

Select Manage: Devices. The Administrator will be presented with a list of all configured Managed Devices, whereas the User will only see the Managed Devices they (or their Group) has been given access privileges for.

Select Serial Network or Power for a view of the specific connections. The user can then take a range of actions using these serial, network or power connections by selecting the Action icon or the related Manage menu item. (For example, selecting the Manager Power icon [or Manage: Power from the menu] would enable the user to power Off/On/Cycle any power outlet on any PDU the user has been given access privileges to [refer to Chapter 8 for details]).
