INSTALLATION GUIDE

Network Installation

Step 1 – Network Connection
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.
DHCP is enabled by factory default. If the PDU does not
receive an IP address from the network's DHCP server, it
will default to 192.168.20.177.
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: Power Device Network Utility (recommended)
1. Download and install the Power Device Network Utility
software from www.cyberpower.com.
2. Open the Power Device Network Utility and select 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
"cyber" and the default password is "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: IP Address : arp-s 192.168.20.240
MAC Address: 00-0c-15-80-00-01
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
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 values indicated
in Appendix A.
4. Press Enter to enter the Authentication menu.
5. Enter the user name and password of the PDU device at
the Authentication menu.
6. Press 2 and Enter to access Network Settings to view
the IP address.
Note: The default username is "cyber" and the
default password is "cyber". For further information
