Chapter 1 Introduction

Overview

As part of its NRGence line, ATEN has developed a new generation of green energy power distribution units (PDUs) to effectively increase rack space and the efficiency of data center power usage. The NRGence PE5221T / PE5224TA / PE5324TA / PE5342TB / PE5342TG eco PDUs are thin form factor intelligent PDUs that contain 21/24/42 AC outlets and are available in various IEC or NEMA socket configurations.

Thin form factor PDUs have a smaller 56~mm width to fit tight into server racks providing more space for cooling and maintenance. The smaller design leaves 8% more space in the server rack to increase air flow and cool IT equipment more efficiently. For full racks this means faster maintenance with easier access to equipment installed behind PDUs.

They provide secure, centralized, intelligent, power monitoring at the PDU or bank level with the ability to monitor the health of the data center's environment via sensors ^6 . The basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.

The NRGence eco PDUs offer real-time power measurement and threshold alerts – allowing you to monitor the PDU's power status, bank status and circuit breakers*, either at the PDU device or from practically any location via a TCP/IP connection*.

Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their appropriate ports and user-friendly browser-based configuration and management is all that is entailed. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable over the Net, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements simply by downloading updates from our website as they become available.

NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd party V1, V2, V3 SNMP Manager Software and NRGence eco Sensors (eco PDU Manager Software). eco Sensors provides you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment.

PE5T User Manual

feature provides a faster response time to recover servers and other devices when a circuit overload causes a loss of power.

With its advanced security features and ease of operation, the eco PDU is the most convenient, most reliable, and most cost effective way to remotely monitor power and allocate power resources in the most efficient way possible.

Note: 1. Sensors are optional accessories. A sensor-enabled installation is required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. See Optional Accessories, page 7, for further information.
2. Circuit breaker monitoring is only available on models with 30/32 amps.
3. eco PDUs are primarily designed for access via Intranects; extra network security protection is suggested for Internet access usage.

Chapter 1. Introduction

Optional Accessories

Sensors

Sensors are optional accessories. You can use the eco PDU unit without sensors. However, if you want to have complete energy management of an instrumented data center with the use of the eco PDU, you would need to use eco Sensors software and install 4 sensors for each of the racks to generate a complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. 24/40 -port models have 2 sensor ports. In this case, Sensor 1 needs to be installed at the intake of the rack and sensor 2 needs to be placed at the exhaust of IT equipment of the rack. A sensor-enabled installation is required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. Available sensors are show in the table, below:

Sensor Part Number
Temperature	EA1140
Temperature / Humidity EA1240
Differential Pressure / Temperature EA1340

Sensor Management

Sensors can be managed via the eco PDU's built-in graphical user interface (GUI) or with the NRGence eco Sensors software that can be downloaded from the ATEN website. The download link can be found on the software CD provided with the eco PDU package.

Cable Holders

Cable holders are optional accessories. For added safety, use ATEN Lok-U-Plug cable holders and EZ-Lok Plug Connectors to secure the cables from your attached devices in place on the eco PDU unit. Use only the ATEN Lok-U-Plug cable holders and EZ-Lok Plug Connectors that have been specifically designed to work with the eco PDU. Using any other kind of cable securing device could be highly dangerous.

Service Ports

As a security measure, if a firewall is being used, the Administrator can specify the port numbers that the firewall will allow. If a port other than the default is used, users must specify the port number as part of the IP address when they log in. If an invalid port number (or no port number) is specified, the eco PDU will not be found.

Select whether to allow only secure browser logins, as show below:

Service Ports

Only HTTPS HTTP / HTTPS HTTP: 80 HTTPS: 443

An explanation of the fields is given in the table below:

Field Explanation

HTTP The port number for a browser login. The default is 80.

HTTPS The port number for a secure browser login. The default is 443.

Note: 1. Valid entries for all of the Service Ports are from 1–65535.

1. The service ports cannot have the same value. You must set a different value for each one.

2. If there is no firewall (on an Intranet, for example), it doesn't matter what these numbers are set to, since they have no effect.

IPv4 Configuration

The PDU's IPv4 IP and DNS addresses (the traditional method of specifying IP addresses) can either be assigned dynamically (DHCP), or a fixed IP address can be specified.

IPv4 Configuration

Obtain IP address automatically [DHCP] Set IP address manually [Fixed IP] IP Address: 10.3.56.74 Subnet Mask: 255.255.254.0 Default Gateway: 10.3.57.254 Obtain DNS server address automatically Set DNS server address manually Preferred DNS Server: 10.0.1.7 Alternate DNS Server: 10.0.1.6

• For dynamic IP address assignment, select the Obtain IP address automatically radio button. (This is the default setting.)
• To specify a fixed IP address, select the Set IP address manually radio button and fill in the IP address with values appropriate for your network.
• For automatic DNS Server address assignment, select the Obtain DNS Server address automatically radio button.
• To specify the DNS Server address manually, select the Set DNS server address manually radio button, and fill in the addresses for the Preferred and Alternate DNS servers with values appropriate for your network.

Note: 1. If you choose Obtain IP address automatically, when the device starts up it waits to get its IP address from the DHCP server. If it hasn't obtained the address after one minute, it automatically reverts to its factory default IP address (192.168.0.60.)

1. If the device is on a network that uses DHCP to assign network addresses, and you need to ascertain its IP address, see IP Address Determination, page 63, for information.

2. Specifying the Alternate DNS Server address is optional.

Event Notification

The Event Notification section is divided into three sections: SMTP Settings; SNMP Trap Receivers; and Syslog Server. Each section is described below.

Login String / IP Filter / Mac Filter

Login String/IP Filter/MAC Filter

Login String: IP Filter Enable Include Exclude Add Modify Delete MAC Filter Enable Include Exclude Add Modify Delete

- Login String

The Login String entry field is used to specify a login string (in addition to the IP address) that users must include when accessing the eco PDU device with a browser. For example:

192.168.0.126/abcdefg

◆ The following characters are allowed:

$$ 0 - 9 \text { a - z A - Z } \sim ! @ * () _ {-} ^ {\prime}, $$

- The following characters are not allowed:

$$ \& \wedge {} ^ {\prime \prime} < > |" \%": /? # \backslash [ \text {Space} ] + - = [ ]; $$

Compound characters (É Ç ñ ... etc.)

Note: 1. There must be a forward slash between the IP address and the string.

1. If no login string is specified here, anyone will be able to access the eco PDU device login page using the IP address alone. This makes your installation less secure.

For security purposes, we recommend that you change this string occasionally.

■ IP Filter / MAC Filter

If any filters have been configured, they appear in the IP Filter and/or MAC Filter list boxes.

IP and MAC Filters control access to the eco PDU based on the IP and/or MAC addresses of the client computers attempting to connect. A maximum of 5 IP filters and 5 MAC filters are allowed.

Enter the start IP address (for example, 192.168.0.1): Enter the end IP address (for example, 192.168.1.255):

1. Specify the start filter address in the dialog box (for example, 192.168.0.200), then click OK.
2. To filter a single IP address, key in the same address as the start IP. To filter a continuous range of addresses, key in the end number of the range (for example, 192.168.0.225).
3. After filling in the address, click OK.

Repeat these steps for any additional IP addresses you want to filter.

To add a MAC filter, do the following:

1. Click Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:

Enter the MAC address (for example, 004854655511):

1. Specify the MAC address in the dialog box (for example, 001074670000), then click OK.

Repeat these steps for any additional MAC addresses you want to filter.

IP Filter / MAC Filter Conflict

If there is a conflict between an IP filter and a MAC filter – for example, where a computer's IP address is allowed by the IP filter but its MAC address is excluded by the MAC filter – then that computer's access is blocked.

In other words, if either filter blocks a computer, then the computer is blocked, no matter what the other filter is set to.

Modifying Filters

To modify a filter, select it in the IP Filter or MAC Filter list box and click Modify. The Modify dialog box is similar to the Add dialog box. When it comes up, simply delete the old address(es) and replace it with the new one(s).

Deleting Filters

To delete a filter, select it in the IP Filter or MAC Filter list box and click Delete.

Where xxxx represents the Username given to the user when the account was created on the eco PDU device. The user's access rights are the ones assigned for the eco PDU device, as well. (See User Information, page 37.)

Note: su/user supports view ports only; su/administrator supports all eco PDU functions.

Private Certificate

When logging in over a secure (SSL) connection, a signed certificate is used to verify that the user is logging in to the intended site. For enhanced security, the Private Certificate section allows you to use your own private encryption key and signed certificate, rather than the default ATEN certificate.

Private Certificate

Private Key: Browse... Certificate: Browse...

There are two methods for establishing your private certificate: generating a self-signed certificate; and importing a third-party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate.

Generating a Self-Signed Certificate

If you wish to create your own self-signed certificate, a free utility – openssl.exe – is available for download over the web.

Obtaining a CA Signed SSL Server Certificate

For the greatest security, we recommend using a third party certificate authority (CA) signed certificate. To obtain a third party signed certificate, go to a CA (Certificate Authority) website to apply for an SSL certificate. After the CA sends you the certificate and private encryption key, save them to a convenient location on your computer.

(Continues on next page.)

Importing the Private Certificate

To import the private certificate, do the following:

1. Click Browse to the right of Private Key; browse to where your private encryption key file is located; and select it.
2. Click Browse to the right of Certificate; browse to where your certificate file is located; and select it.
3. Click Upload to complete the procedure.

Note: 1. Clicking Restore Default returns the device to using the default ATEN certificate.

1. Both the private encryption key and the signed certificate must be imported at the same time.

When you have finished making your settings on this page, click Save.

IP Address Determination

If you are an administrator logging in for the first time, you need to access the eco PDU in order to give it an IP address that users can connect to. There are two methods to choose from. In each case, your client computer must be on the same network segment as the eco PDU. After you have connected and logged in you can give the device its fixed network address. (See Setup, page 40.)

Method 1:

For computers running Windows, an IP address can be determined and/or assigned with the IP Installer utility. The utility can be obtained from the Download area of our web site or from the software CD. Look under Driver/SW, and the model of your device. After downloading the utility to your computer, do the following:

1. Unzip the contents of IPInstaller.zip to a directory on your hard drive.

2. Go to the directory that you unzipped the IPInstaller program to and run IPInstaller.exe. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:

Network Device IP Installers Device list Device Name Model Name MAC Address IP Address PEB Series PC0200G 00-10-74-8e-01-02 192.163.0.00 Protocol: IPv4 Network adapter: MAC: 00-06-7b-0a-c01c, IP: 192.163.52.102 IPv4 settings Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) Use the following IP address: IP address 192 168 0 60 Submit reset 255 255 0 0 Default gateway 192 168 0 354 Obtain DNS server address automatically Use the following DNS server addresses: Preferred DNS server 0 0 0 0 Alternate DNS server 0 0 0 0 IPv6 settings Obtain an IPv6 address automatically (DHCP) Use the following IPv6 address: IPv6 address Submit pre# length: Default gateway: Obtain DNS server address automatically, Use the following DNS server addresses: Preferred DNS server: Alternate DNS server:

(Continued from previous page.)

1. Select the device in the Device List.

Note: 1. If the list is empty, or your device doesn't appear, click Enumerate to refresh the Device List.

1. If there is more than one device in the list, use the MAC address to pick the one you want. The eco PDU's MAC address is located on its bottom panel.

2. Select either Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP), or Specify an IP address. If you chose the latter, fill the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway fields with the information appropriate to your network.

3. Click Set IP.

4. After the IP address shows up in the Device List, click Exit to end the program.

Method 2:

1. Set your computer's IP address to 192.168.0.XXX
   Where XXX represents any number or numbers except 60. (192.168.0.60) is the default address of the eco PDU.)
2. Specify the device's default IP address (192.168.0.60) in your browser, and you will be able to connect.
3. Assign a fixed IP address for the device (see IPv4 Configuration, page 42), that is suitable for the network segment that it resides on.
4. After you log out, reset your computer's IP address to its original value.
5. Once you have logged in, go to Network Settings to set up the permanent IP environment (see IPv4 Configuration, page 42).

Method 3:

ALTUSEN eco Sensors allows you to determine/assign an IP address in order to configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment connected to it. ALTUSEN eco Sensors can be obtained from the Download area of the ATEN web site.
