The iBoot-G2 is a network attached, IP addressed, web controlled AC power switch. Anyone with a web
browser can access iBoot-G2 to perform power On, Off or Power Cycle (Reboot or Power Burst). iBoot-
G2 uses two levels of password for security.
iBoot-G2 features international standard IEC320 connections and is compatible with power mains
worldwide.
A simple Web browser interface makes it easy to control power from anywhere in the world
with a click of a mouse. iBoot-G2 also supports Telnet for text commands, as well as Dataprobe's
Exchange Protocol (DxP) for interfacing to a variety of Dataprobe products and custom software
development.

Remote reboot of any device,
routers, servers, kiosks, etc. The
device to be rebooted need not be

Multiple Control Options
In addition to the Web control capabilities, iBoot-G2 features several other means to operate automatically
or under computer control.
AutoPing: The AutoPing feature allows iBoot-G2 to automatically detect failed equipment and perform a
timed reboot or other power control function (like turning on an indicator or siren). You set 1 or 2 IP
addresses to be periodically pinged. When iBoot-G2 no longer detects a response from the address(es),
the programmed power control function is actuated.
Telnet: iBoot's Command Line Interface (CLI) allows direct control and setup through Telnet.
Dataprobe Exchange Protocol: iBoot-G2 supports Dataprobe Exchange Protocol (DxP) This protocol
allows Dataprobe products to communicate across networks, and allows developers to design custom
applications to integrate iBoot-G2 into custom applications. For more information about DxP, contact
Dataprobe Applications Engineering and Support.
