Console Server & RIM Gateway User Manual
Device must be set up with both its Serial port connection and Power connection configured. The command to
bring up the power menu is
~p
Single Connection This setting limits the port to a single connection so if multiple users have access privileges for a
particular port only one user at a time can be accessing that port (i.e. port “snooping” is not permitted)
4.1.3 SDT Mode
This Secure Tunneling setting allows port forwarding of RDP, VNC, HTPP, HTTPS, SSH, Telnet and other LAN protocols
through to computers which are locally connected to the
console server by their serial COM port. However such port
forwarding requires a PPP link to be set up over this serial port.
For configuration details refer to Chapter 6.6 - Using SDT Connector to Telnet or SSH connect to devices that are serially
attached to the console server
4.1.4 Device (RPC, UPS, EMD) Mode
This mode configures the selected serial port to communicate with a serial controlled Uninterruptable Power Supply
(UPS), Remote Power Controller/ Power Distribution Units (RPC) or Environmental Monitoring Device (EMD)


Proceed to the appropriate device configuration page ( Serial & Network: UPS Connections, RPC Connection
or Environmental ) as detailed in Chapter 8 - Power & Environmental Management
