Once you’ve connected your Avocent PM PDU to a network, you can access the PM PDU with
the web manager. The web manager provides direct access to the PM PDU via a graphical user
interface instead of a command-based interface.
NOTE: For instructions on accessing the PM PDU via the command line interface (CLI), SNMP or DSView 3
software, see Accessing a PM PDU via the Command Line Interface on page 47, Accessing a PMPDU via SNMP on
page 73 or the DSView 3 Installer/User Guide.
Web Manager Overview for Administrators
NOTE: For an overview of the web manager for regular users, see Web Manager Overview for Regular Users on
page 44.
To log into the web manager:
1. Open a web browser and enter the PM PDU’s IP address in the address field.
2. Log in as either admin with the password avocent or as root with the password linux.
