8. Power, Environment and Digital I/O • If you selected SNMP protocol, you will need to enter the SNMP v1 or v2c Community for Read/Write access (by default this is set to "private"). • Check Log Status and specify the Log Rate (minutes between samples) if you wish the status from this RPC to be logged. These logs can be viewed from the Status: RPC Status screen. • Click Apply. • For SNMP PDUs, the console server will now probe the configured RPC to confirm the RPC Type matches and will report the number of outlets it finds that can be controlled. If unsuccessful, it will report Unable to probe outlets and you will need to check the RPC settings or network/serial connection. • For serially connected RPC devices, a new managed device with the same name as given to the RPC will be created. The console server will then configure the RPC with the number of outlets specified in the selected RPC Type or will query the RPC itself for this information. Note: Tripp Lite's console servers support most network and serial PDUs. If your PDU is not on the default list, support can be added directly (refer to 14. Configuration from the Command Line) or by having the PDU support added to either the Network UPS Tools or PowerMan open source projects. IPMI service processors and BMCs can be configured so all authorized users can use the management console to remotely cycle power and reboot computers, even when their operating system is unresponsive. To set up IPMI power control, the Administrator will first enter the IP address/domain name of the BMC or service processor (e.g. a Dell DRAC) in Serial & Network: Network Hosts, then in Serial & Network: RPC Connections. The RPC Type should be IPMI1.5 or 2.0. 153
