Quick Configuration

10 Metered Rack Power Distribution Unit

BOOTP. You can use an RFC951-compliant BOOTP server to configure

the TCP/IP settings for the PDU. If the BOOTP server is properly

configured, the PDU’s default setting (DHCP & BOOTP) for BOOT

Mode causes it to discover the BOOTP server.

1. Enter the PDU’s MAC and IP addresses, the subnet mask and

default gateway settings, and an optional bootup file name in the

BOOTPTAB file of the BOOTP server.

2. When the PDU reboots, the BOOTP server provides it with the

TCP/IP settings.

– If you specified a bootup file name, the PDU attempts to transfer

that file from the BOOTP server using TFTP or FTP. The PDU

assumes all settings specified in the bootup file.

– If you did not specify a bootup file name, the PDU can be

configured remotely by using Telnet or by using the Web

interface: user name and password are both apc, by default. See

“Remote access to the control console” on page 12 for

configuration instruction.

If a BOOTP server is unavailable, see “APC Management

Card Wizard” on page 9, “Local access to the control

console” on page 12, or “Remote access to the control

console” on page 12 to configure TCP/IP settings.

Note

For the MAC address, look on the bottom of the PDU or

on the Quality Assurance slip included in the package.

You must use the APC Management Card Wizard to

create the bootup file. To create a bootup file, see the

BOOTP section in the Addendum.
