Accessing a PM PDU via the

Command Line Interface

Access Options and How to Log Into the CLI

The CLI utility can be accessed in the following ways:

• Through a local terminal or a computer that has a terminal emulation program connected to

the console port of the console server with session settings of 9600, 8, N and 1, with no flow

control.

• After the PM PDU is connected to the network and has an IP address, it can be accessed by

one of the following methods:

• An SSH or Telnet client on a remote computer (if the SSH or Telnet protocol is enabled

in the selected Security Profile).

• By selecting Web Manager - Overview - Appliance Session.

• With DSView 3 software.

Administrators have full access to the CLI and to connected devices. An administrator can

authorize regular users to manage power, manage data buffer storage and use one or more PM

PDU administration tools. Users can always change their own passwords.

To start the CLI:

1. Access the CLI through the console port, with Telnet or SSH or through the web manager.

2. Type the username and password at the prompt. The cli-> prompt appears.

NOTE: The default password for admin is avocent and for root is linux. The password for these users may have

been changed during installation of the PM PDU. If not, change the default root and admin passwords to avoid

potential security breaches.
