Legrand PDU User Guide 245
Server Status Checking or Power Control
It is model dependent whether your Legrand PDU supports the shutdown and power control features via
the Server Reachability page.
After adding IT equipment for monitoring, all IT devices are listed on the Server Reachability page.
In the beginning, the status of the added IT equipment shows "Waiting for reliable connection," which means
the requested number of consecutive successful or unsuccessful pings has not reached before Legrand PDU
can declare that the monitored device is reachable or unreachable.
To check the server monitoring states and results:
1. The column labeled "Ping Enabled" indicates whether the monitoring for the corresponding IT device is
activated or not.
2. The column labeled "Status" indicates the accessibility of monitored equipment.
