For unsupported devices:

• Power Center does not communicate with unsupported devices; therefore, connection protocol and credential

information is not necessary.

• Unsupported devices cannot be discovered, only added manually to the device list on the Devices page.

• Power Center adds the unsupported device to the group structure, but cannot manage it using the available

management functions.

You may need to enter the following power values when adding supported or unsupported devices:

• Faceplate Power: The maximum amount of power that a group/device can draw; this value should be listed on

the power supply specifications. The faceplate power rating is typically much higher than the actual power used

by the device.

• De-rated Power: The default maximum power value; if a power measurement cannot be completed, this value is

used.

NOTE: Faceplate power value is always greater than the de-rated power value.

Adding a Device from the Network

You can use the Power Center management console to discover a device from the network.

Before adding a device from the network, make sure the DNS server is set up correctly. Specifically, make sure that:

• There is a DNS server running on the Power Center network.

• The specified DNS server has a reverse DNS zone for the network on which you are trying to discover the

devices.

NOTE: Power Center server tries to get device names from the DNS server specified in the network configuration

of the operating system. This may cause the device name to be different from the actual one if the DNS server

resolves the device IP address to a different device name.
