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.
Access priority for logging on
Only one user at a time can log on to the PDU to use its internal user
interface features. The priority for access is as follows:
• Local access to the control console from a computer with a direct serial
connection to the PDU always has the highest priority.
• Telnet access to the control console from a remote computer has
priority over Web access.
• Web access has the lowest priority.
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) Reference Guide
(\doc\mibgde.pdf),which is provided on the APC Switched
Rack Power Distribution Unit Utility CD.
