Introduction Product Description Features of the PDU ® The APC Switched Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is a stand-alone, network-manageable device that allows programmable control of eight, sixteen, or twenty-four power outlets (depending on the model). You can control a PDU remotely through its Web, control console (serial or telnet), or SNMP interfaces. PDUs have these additional features: • Independent outlet control • Power sequencing • 24 independent Outlet User accounts • Three le

The PDU does not provide power protection. Therefore, APC does not recommend plugging a unit directly into any unprotected power source, such as a wall outlet. Initial setup You must define three TCP/IP settings for the Switched Rack PDU before it can operate on the network. • IP address of the PDU • Subnet mask • IP address of the default gateway To configure the TCP/IP settings, see the Switched Rack PDU Installation and Quick Start Manual, provided in PDF on the APC Switched Rack Power

Access Procedures Overview The PDU has two internal interfaces (control console and Web interface) which provide menus with options that allow you to manage the PDU. The SNMP interface also allows you to use an SNMP browser with the ® PowerNet Management Information Base (MIB) to manage the PDU. For more information about the internal user interfaces, see Control Console and Web Interface. To use the PowerNet MIB with an SNMP browser, see the PowerNet® SNMP Management Information Base (MIB

Types of user accounts The PDU has three levels of access (Administrator, Device Manager, and Outlet user), all of which are protected by password and user name requirements. • An Administrator can use all of the management menus available in the control console and the Web interface. The Administrator’s default user name and password are both apc. • A Device Manager can use only the following menus (the default user name is device and the password is apc): – the Device Manager menu and its

Watchdog Features Overview To detect internal problems and recover from unanticipated inputs, the PDU uses internal, system-wide watchdog mechanisms. When it restarts itself to recover from an internal problem, a System: Warmstart event is recorded in the Event Log. Network interface watchdog mechanism The PDU implements internal watchdog mechanisms to protect itself from becoming inaccessible over the network. For example, if the PDU does not receive any network traffic for 9.5 minutes (e
