Note: If a PDU beeps after being powered up, either its
circuit breaker has tripped or the L-N wiring is reversed. If
no circuit breakers tripped, check the wiring of the plug
adapter that is used or the direction in which the plug or
plug adapter is plugged into the power socket.
5. When the software has completed loading, the outlet
LEDs show a steady color and the front panel display
illuminates.
QS Rule
&RQQHFWLQJWKH3;WR 1. Connect a standard network patch cable to the LAN port on the PX device. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to your LAN. QS Rule ,QLWLDO&RQILJXUDWLRQ There are two ways to configure the PX for the first time. x Connect the PX to a computer to configure it. STEP 1: Connect the PX to a Computer (on page 4) STEP 2: Configure the PX (on page 4) x Connect the PX to a TCP/IP network that supports DHCP, and use the IPv4 address and web browser to configure the PX. The DHCP-assigned IP address can be retrieved through the PX device's MAC address. Contact your LAN administrator for assistance. See MAC Address (on page 5). 67(3&RQQHFWWKH3;WRD&RPSXWHU 1. Connect the RJ-45 end of the null modem cable to the port labeled SERIAL on the PX. 2. Connect the DB9 end of the null modem cable to the serial port (COM) of the computer. 67(3&RQILJXUHWKH3; 1. On the computer connected to the PX, open a communications program such as HyperTerminal or PuTTY. 2. Select the appropriate COM port, and set the following port settings: Bits per second = 9600 Data bits = 8 Stop bits = 1 Parity = None Flow control = None 3. In the communications program, press Enter and the opening prompt appears. 4. Type config and press Enter. 5. The PX prompts you to assign a device name to the PDU. Type the name and press Enter. 6. The PX prompts you to enter several networking parameters. IP address The default IP configuration method is DHCP. To assign the PX an IP address, choose either: Auto configuration: Type dhcp or bootp to let the DHCP or BOOTP server provide the IP address. Static IP address: Type none and when prompted, enter an IP address, network mask and gateway. IP access control Leave it disabled now. It disables the PX device's firewall. You can enable the firewall and create access control rules after the initial configuration is complete. LAN interface speed Leave the default auto, or type 10 or 100 for 10 or 100 Mbps. LAN interface duplex mode Leave the default auto, or type half or full for half or full duplex. FIPS mode Leave the default no to disable the FIPS mode or type yes to enable it. Note that the FIPS mode only supports FIPS approved algorithms that are defined in FIPS PUB 140-2 (http://www.nist.gov/cmvp/). SNMP agent Leave the default yes, or type no to disable the SNMP agent implemented on the PX. SNMP v1/v2c protocol This setting appears only when the SNMP agent is enabled. Leave the default yes, or type no to disable SNMP v1/v2c. If enabled, specify the read and write community strings when prompted. Default community strings include: Read: raritan_public Write: raritan_private In the FIPS mode, SNMP v1/v2c is NOT supported so the system does not prompt you to configure it.
