Black Box MPSH16-D20-120V User Manual

OUTLET MANAGED PDU

In the default state, the Outlet Managed PDU includes one predefined account that

provides access to Administrator commands and allows control of all of the Outlet

Managed PDU’s switched power outlets. The default username for this account is

super" (lowercase, no quotation marks), and the password for the account is

also "

super".

Notes:

• In order to ensure security, it is recommended that when initially

setting up the unit, a new user account with Administrator access
should be created, and the "super" account should then
be deleted.

• If the Outlet Managed PDU is reset to default parameters, all user

accounts will be cleared, and the default "super" account will
be restored.

5.4.2. Plug Access
Each account can be granted access to a different selection of power outlets (plugs)

and plug groups. When accounts are created, the Plug Access parameter and the

Plug Group Access parameter in the Add User menu or Modify User menu are used

to grant or deny access to each plug or plug group. In addition, each access level

also restricts the plugs and plug groups that the account will be allowed to access:

• Administrator: Administrator level accounts are always allowed to control all

plugs and plug groups. Plug access cannot be disabled for Administrator level

accounts.

• SuperUser: SuperUser accounts allow access to all plugs and plug groups.

Port access cannot be disabled for SuperUser accounts.

• User: User level accounts are only allowed to issue switching commands to

the plugs and plug groups that have been specifically permitted via the "Plug

Access" parameter in the Add User and Modify User menus.

• ViewOnly: ViewOnly level accounts are not allowed to issue switching

commands. ViewOnly accounts can display the On/Off state of plugs and plug

groups, but are limited to the plugs and plug groups specified by the account.
