Chapter 1

Introduction

Overview

As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green energy power distribution units (eco PDUs) to effectively increase the efficiency of data center power usage. The NRGence PE7216 / PE7324 / PE8121kJ / PE8216 / PE8324 / PE9216 / PE9324 / PE7328 / PE9330 eco PDUs are intelligent PDUs that contain 16, 21, 24, 28, or 30 AC outlets and are available in various IEC socket configurations. Models in the advanced PE9 range feature a dedicated 8/14-outlet bank for critical load devices, and both the PE8 and PE9 ranges feature NRGence’s proactive overload protection, which automatically powers off the last outlet that caused the current overload.

NRGence eco PDUs provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power management (power on, off, cycle) of data center IT equipment (servers, storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as well as the ability to monitor the center's health environment via sensors*. The basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.

NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time power measurement – allowing you to control and monitor the power status of devices attached to the PDUs, either at the PDU device, bank, or outlet level, depending on the model, from practically any location via a TCP/IP connection*.

The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch each device On/Off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis reports which can separate departments and locations, providing precise measurements of current, voltage, power and watt-hour in a real-time display.

Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.

NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V3 SNMP Manager Software and NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco Sensors provides you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it.

Chapter 1. Introduction

With its advanced security features and ease of operation, the eco PDU is the most convenient, most reliable, and most cost effective way to remotely manage power access for multiple computer installations and allocate power resources in the most efficient way possible.

Note: 1. Sensors are optional accessories. A sensor-enabled installation is

required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. See Optional Accessories, page 8, for further information.

2. eco PDUs are primarily designed for access via Intranet; extra network security protection is suggested for Internet access usage.

3. Not all models support all features. See Comparison Chart, page 3, and Specifications, page 73, for full details.

Service Ports

As a security measure, if a firewall is being used, the Administrator can specify the port numbers that the firewall will allow. If a port other than the default is used, users must specify the port number as part of the IP address when they log in. If an invalid port number (or no port number) is specified, the eco PDU will not be found.

Select whether to allow only secure browser logins, as show below:

An explanation of the fields is given in the table below:

Field Explanation

HTTP The port number for a browser login. The default is 80.

HTTPS The port number for a secure browser login. The default is 443.

Note: 1. Valid entries for all of the Service Ports are from 1–65535.

2. The service ports cannot have the same value. You must set a different value for each one.

3. If there is no firewall (on an Intranet, for example), it doesn’t matter what these numbers are set to, since they have no effect.

& ^ { } ‘ ’ < > | " % ” : / ? # \ [Space] + - = [ ] ;

Compound characters (É Ç ñ ... etc.)

Note: 1. There must be a forward slash between the IP address and the string.

2. If no login string is specified here, anyone will be able to access the eco PDU device login page using the IP address alone. This makes your installation less secure.

For security purposes, we recommend that you change this string occasionally.

Chapter 8. Setup

 IP Filter / MAC Filter

If any filters have been configured, they appear in the IP Filter and/or MAC Filter list boxes.

IP and MAC Filters control access to the eco PDU based on the IP and/or MAC addresses of the client computers attempting to connect. A maximum of 5 IP filters and 5 MAC filters are allowed.

To enable IP and/or MAC filtering, click to put a check mark in the IP Filter Enable and/or MAC Filter Enable checkbox.

 If the include button is checked, all the addresses within the filter range are

allowed access; all other addresses are denied access.

 If the exclude button is checked, all the addresses within the filter range

are denied access; all other addresses are allowed access.

Adding Filters

Note: su/user supports view ports only; su/administrator supports all eco PDU

functions.

Chapter 8. Setup

Private Certificate

When logging in over a secure (SSL) connection, a signed certificate is used to verify that the user is logging in to the intended site. For enhanced security, the Private Certificate section allows you to use your own private encryption key and signed certificate, rather than the default ATEN certificate.

There are two methods for establishing your private certificate: generating a self-signed certificate; and importing a third-party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate.

Generating a Self-Signed Certificate

If you wish to create your own self-signed certificate, a free utility – openssl.exe – is available for download over the web.

Obtaining a CA Signed SSL Server Certificate

For the greatest security, we recommend using a third party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate. To obtain a third party signed certificate, go to a CA (Certificate Authority) website to apply for an SSL certificate. After the CA sends you the certificate and private encryption key, save them to a convenient location on your computer.

Importing the Private Certificate

To import the private certificate, do the following:

1. Click Browse to the right of Private Key; browse to where your private

encryption key file is located; and select it.

2. Click Browse to the right of Certificate; browse to where your certificate

file is located; and select it.

3. Click Upload to complete the procedure.

Note: 1. Clicking Restore Default returns the device to using the default

ATEN certificate.

2. Both the private encryption key and the signed certificate must be imported at the same time.

When you have finished making your settings on this page, click Save.

2. If there is more than one device in the list, use the MAC address to pick the one you want. The eco PDU's MAC address is located on its bottom panel.

4. Select either Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP), or Specify an IP address. If you chose the latter, fill the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway fields with the information appropriate to your network.

5. Click Set IP.

6. After the IP address shows up in the Device List, click Exit to end the program.

Method 2:

1. Set your computer's IP address to 192.168.0.XXX

Where XXX represents any number or numbers except 60. (192.168.0.60) is the default address of the eco PDU.)

2. Specify the device’s default IP address (192.168.0.60) in your browser, and you will be able to connect.

3. Assign a fixed IP address for the device (see IPv4 Configuration, page 51), that is suitable for the network segment that it resides on.

4. After you log out, reset your computer's IP address to its original value.

5. Once you have logged in, go to Network Settings to set up the permanent IP environment (see IPv4 Configuration, page 51).
