Interfaces

The Switched PDU has two interfaces: the HTML interface accessed via the HTTP enabled Ethernet connections and the command line for serial and Telnet connections.

Outlet Naming and Grouping

For commands requiring an outlet name, you may specify it in one of two ways: a predefined absolute name or a descriptive name assigned by an administrator.

Absolute names are specified by a period (.) followed by a tower letter and outlet number. The tower letter for the PTXL is A and the tower letter for the optional Expansion Module is B.

Outlets may also be included in one or more named groups of outlets, enabling you to issue a command that affects all outlets in a named group.

Usernames and Passwords

The Switched PDU has one predefined administrative user account (username/password: admn/admn) and supports a maximum of 128 defined user accounts

NOTE: For security, MGE UPS SYSTEMS recommends removal of the predefined administrative user account after a new account with administrative rights has been created.

Only an administrative-level user may perform operations such as creating/removing user accounts and command privileges, changing passwords and displaying outlet and user information. An administrator may also view the status of and control power to all outlets.

The administrator may create additional user accounts and then grant these users the right to view the status of and control power to specific outlets, groups and ports.

Usernames may contain from 1 to 24 characters and are not case sensitive; spaces are not allowed. Passwords may contain up to 16 characters, and are case sensitive.
