1. Introduction Tripp Lite LX Platform devices contain an Ethernet network interface that enables remote monitoring, control and condition reporting. These functions can be performed using Tripp Lite Management Software, SNMP Network Management Software, a Web browser or Telnet/SSH. This User's Guide focuses on configuration and management offered through the web interface and Telnet/SSH. The web interface for LX Platform devices is known as the PowerAlert® Device Manager, or PADM, for short. 1.1 System Requirements • Tripp Lite LX Platform Device, such as WEBCARDLX, PDU3E-series PDUs, PDU3XE-series PDUs, LX suffix PDUs and LX-compatible Cooling products • Ethernet network that supports the TCP/IP protocol • One of the following options for remote monitoring and control: • Tripp Lite Management Software • SNMP-based Network Management Software • Web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari) • VT-100 Telnet and/or SSH Client • For "Terminal Mode" configuration only: • Terminal emulation software program (such as TeraTerm Pro by Ayera Technologies) Warning: Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Note: As of firmware version 15.5.7, PowerAlert Device Manager (PADM) applies the following security policies: • On initial login with any of the pre-configured Local Users - localadmin, localmanager or localguest - PADM will force the user to change the default password. • The preconfigured SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 users - public and tripplite, respectively - are disabled, by default. • The default password of the pre-configured SNMPv3 users - localadmin, localmanager or localguest - must be changed prior to use. The new entry will be saved as both the authentication and privacy passwords. 2
