3.2 User Privileges and Port Reservations:
All user levels, including anonymous (visitor), are able to access the system via a serial connection
from your work station to the Local Master port, or via a Telnet session from your work station.
Administration Login:
There is only one Administration account on the system. The default name is “admin” and
default password is also “admin”. The default name and password may be changed. If you
login at Administration level, you are able to remove or change existing user accounts, take
over power outlets or user serial console ports and change system settings.
User Login:
At user login level, you are able to reserve power or console ports for your applications if
they are “open”, as well as make system configuration changes. At this login level, you are
not able to change power outlet operation status for other reserved power outlets.
Anonymous(Visitor) Access:
If you have no account established on the system (as an anonymous user), you are only able
to view the system configuration settings and operate unreserved power outlets.
3.3 Local Master Port Access:
To access and configure the system from the master port, you need to connect a RS232 port from
your work station to the Local Master Serial Port. Then run a terminal emulation program (such as
Window’s Hyper Terminal) on your computer.
1)
Connect the system’s Local Master Port (DCE) with a straight DB-9 type cable, if your work
station is equipped with a DTE part.
2)
Connect the system’s Ethernet port to your LAN, if you intend to use the network port.
3)
Turn the system power on.
4)
At the terminal emulation program, type the “setup” command to start the system setup
process. Type “help” for help information.
5)
The system has DHCP enabled, as a default setting. Network connectivity parameters are
displayed at the startup screen. If the system does not get a DHCP offer, the system falls back
to default static network settings. You can alter the default network settings to fit your need.
6)
Use the command “ping” to verify your connection. If a network connection is established,
you are able to use Telnet, Web Browsing, Emailing and SMNP.
