Accessing the Web Interface

The Web interface can be accessed using standard Web browsers. Up to eight users can be provided with access
to the interface, but only one administrator can be identified. Web access is enabled by default, but the
administrator can disable access for any other user.

NOTE:

The rPDU defaults to using DHCP when delivered. If you are unable to connect to the rPDU through the network

connection with this default address, change the IP address using the serial interface before using any of the network
interfaces. See “Serial Interface Operation” on page 50 for more information.

To access the Web interface:

1

Open the Web browser and navigate to the IP address of the rPDU.

2

Click the Dell logo start button to log in (see Figure 33).
