1. Introduction
Electronic equipment sometimes "locks-up" requiring a service call just to
flip the power switch to perform a simple reboot. RPS Series Remote Power
Switches give you the ability to perform this function remotely. If secure
remote access is an issue, you can communicate through Perle’s IOLAN DS
product line to securely manage the power status of your electronic equipment.
To configure your environment for an RPS and a Perle IOLAN DS product,
refer to the SCS/SDS/STS User’s Guide. When you are using the RPS
independently, point your browser to the RPS’s IP Address, enter the secure
user name and password, and you’re just a click away from remote power On,
Off or Reboot.
Intelligent Power Control
In addition to web browser access, the RPS can also communicate over any
TCP/IP network using standard Telnet, or out-of-band using an external
modem and basic VT100 type terminal emulation.
Security Features and Co-Location Features
To ensure security, web browser access requires the user to enter an assigned
user name and password. The RPS provides two levels of operational
passwords; the System Administrator Level, which allows access to all
configuration and switching functions, and the User Level, which only allows
access to assigned plugs and cannot be used to change unit configuration.
The RPS also includes an address specific IP security mask, which can be
employed to prevent unauthorized network access to the RPS command mode.
Easy to Configure, Easy to Use
The RPS can be configured over the network, via modem, or locally via the
RPS console port. Easy to use commands let you assign a location name, set
system parameters and view plug status. Outlets can be switched On, Off, or
booted using plug numbers or names.
