Access Procedures

Overview

The MasterSwitch Plus has two internal interfaces (control console and

Web interface) that provide menus with options that allow you to manage

the unit. The SNMP interface also allows you to use an SNMP browser with

the PowerNet® Management Information Base (MIB) to manage the unit.

Access priority for logging on

Only one user at a time can log on to the unit to use its internal user

interface features. The priority for access is as follows:

• Local access to the control console from a computer with a direct serial

connection to the unit always has the highest priority.

• Telnet access to the control console from a remote computer has

priority over Web access.

• Web access has the lowest priority.

For more information about the internal user interfaces, see

Control Console and Web Interface.
