APC PDU/UPS Network - Management Card CLI Setup logo

A config script for the management card which makes configuration a breeze compared to the GUI

  1. Set hostname, location, new admin user, and reset password for default user

     system -n PDU-HOSTNAME-HERE
 system -l "Cabinet#XXXX Right Side (Viewed from HOT ISLE)"
 user -n someuser -pe Administrator -pw somepassword
 user -n apc -cp apc -pw somepassword

  2. Set DNS servers, NTP servers, system contact

     dns -p 8.8.8.8 -s 8.8.4.4
 ntp -p 173.71.69.90 -s 208.94.243.142
 system -c "System Contact Name, Phone Number, EMail Address"

  3. Disable the other default users and enable the new user, disable HTTP, enable HTTPS, and set date format and timezone

     system -s enable
 user -n device -e disable
 user -n readonly -e disable
 user -n someuser -e enable
 web -h disable -s enable
 ftp -S enable
 date -z -08:00
 date -f yyyy-mm-dd

  4. Set IP address, gateway, and search domain

     tcpip -i 10.32.2.56
 tcpip -s 255.255.255.0
 tcpip -g 10.32.2.1
 tcpip -d domain.com

  5. Set longer CLI prompt, disable TELNET, and enable SSH

     prompt -s long
 console -t disable
 console -s enable

  6. Reboot the Management Card to effect changes (this will not take down power on the PDU ports, just reboot the management card)

     reboot
