Configuration

IPDU connected to the cascaded KVM to servers connected to the master KVM/net.

The following error message appears if you try to configure a master KVM port with the slave connected IPDU.

•If the KVM port is on the cascaded device, for example Slave-1, the power outlets can be assigned from the IPDUs connected to the master KVM/net or from the IPDUs connected to Slave-1.

Perform the following procedure to enable a user who is connected to a server through a KVM port to perform power management.

Before you start make sure the following prerequisites are complete:

•The computer is plugged into an IPDU connected to the KVM/net’s AUXport.

•The AUXport has been configured for power management.

•You know the outlet number or numbers to which the computer’s power cable or cables are plugged.

1.In Expert mode, go to Configuration>KVM>Devices. The Devices form appears.

2.Select the Device that contains the port(s) to be configured and click the Port button.

The Port Name list appears.
