Access a Metering Unit on the Network (Original PDU)
After you connect the PDU metering unit to the network, you can use a web browser
to access the metering unit from any system on the network.
Note -
The Original PDU supports both, 10/100 Full Duplex and 10/100 Half Duplex but
not auto-negotiation as defined in IEEE802.3u. The Original PDU uses "auto
detection" which means it configures itself to match the switch port. If a
specific mode of operation is needed the switch port needs to be configured to
the specific mode of operation.
-
Ask your network administrator for the IP address of the PDU metering
unit.
Use the static IP address you configured the metering unit to use,
or ask your network administrator for the IP address assigned by the DHCP
server. Refer to the DHCP server's documentation for instructions on listing
devices connected to the DHCP network.
-
On a system connected to the network, type the metering unit IP address in a
web browser's address line to connect to the PDU metering unit.
Once connected, the browser displays the Current Measurement
page.
