Metered Rack PDU

How to Log On

Overview

You can use the DNS name or IP address of the Metered Rack for the URL address of

the Web interface. Use your case-sensitive user name and password to log on. The

default user name differs by account type:

• apc for an Administrator

• device for a Device Manager

• readonly for a Read-Only User

The default password is apc for all three account types.

Note

If you are using HTTPS as your access protocol, your login credentials

are compared with information in a server certificate. If the certificate

was created with the APC Security Wizard, and an IP address was

specified as the common name in the certificate, you must use an IP

address to log on to the Rack PDU. If a DNS name was specified as the

common name on the certificate, you must use a DNS name to log on.

See Web (Administration>Network>Web>options) to select, enable,

and disable the protocols that control access to the Web interface and

to define the Web-server ports for the protocols.

For information about the Web page that appears when you log on to

the Web interface, see Home Page.
