Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
The PDU is DHCP compatible. If the network does not use a DHCP server, see Connecting through a serial
connection. When connected to the network, the PDU automatically obtains an IP address through DHCP. If
necessary, log in to the web interface to configure the PDU and assign a static IP address.
Procedure
1. Connect a standard Ethernet patch cable to the Ethernet port on the PDU.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN.
3. To confirm connectivity to the network, make sure the Ethernet port on the PDU shows a solid green light
on the left and a flashing yellow light on the right.
4. Use the menu buttons to look up the IP address of the device on the OLED display by selecting Setup >
Network > IPv4 or IPv6 as applicable.
5. In a standard web browser, enter the PDU IP address and configure the PDU described in Web
configuration.
