Network Installation

Step 1 – Attach the LAN Cable
Using an Ethernet cable, attach one end to the Ethernet port on the front
of the PDU, and the other end to a network port.
Step 2 – Establish the PDU IP address
Assigning an IP address to the CyberPower PDU requires the user to have an
available IP address that is valid on the respective network. If an available IP
address is unknown, contact the network administrator to obtain one.
The default IP is 192.168.20.177 and the default DHCP function is on.
There are multiple methods for setting up the IP address on the PDU. Please follow
the instructions below for the method that is appropriate for your application.
Please make sure the PDU is powered on during this process.
Option 1 (recommended): Power Device Network Utility
1. Download the Power Device Network Utility software.
2. Highlight the PDU device from the list and select Tools > Device Setup from the
menu.
3. Configure the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address to match your
network settings.
4. Enter the user name and password of the PDU device at the Authentication menu.
Note: The default username is "admin/cyber" and the default password is "admin/
cyber".
Option 2: DHCP Server
1. Ask your administrator if there is DHCP server on the LAN.
2. Make sure the DHCP is Enabled.
3. Make sure the network connection is ready and power on the PDU.
4. The PDU will obtain an IP address from the DHCP server automatically.
Option 3: Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Command
1. Obtain the MAC address from the sticker on the PDU.
2. Open a command prompt as an administrator and type the following:
"arp -s [available IP address] [MAC address of PDU]".
Example: arp -s 192.168.20.240
IP Address
3. Use the Ping command to assign a size of 123 bytes to the IP.
* Type in "ping 192.168.20.240 -l 123" then press Enter
* If the replies are received, your computer can communicate with the IP address
Option 4: Hyper Terminal or Terminal Emulator
In order for Hyper Terminal to interface with the PDU, the PC/server must be connected
directly to the PDU via the serial port.
1. Use the included RJ45/DB9 serial port connection cable, attach one end to the serial
port on the front of the PDU, and the other end to the PC/ server.
2. Open the Hyper Terminal software on your PC and select a name and icon for the
connection.
3. Setup the COM port settings using the following values.
* Bits per second: 9600
* Data bits: 8
* Parity: None
* Stop bits: 1
* Flow control: None
4. Type "setup" and press Enter to enter the Authentication menu.
5. Enter the user name and password of the PDU device at the Authentication menu.
Note: The default username is "admin/cyber" and the default password is "admin/
cyber".
