Option Description
access To activate changes to any of these selections, log off from the Rack PDU:
•
Disable: Disables access to the Web interface. (To re-enable access, log in to the command line
interface, then type the command http -S enable. For HTTPS access, type https -S
enable.)
•
Enable HTTP (the default): Enables Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which provides
Web access by user name and password, but does not encrypt user names, passwords, and data
during transmission.
•
Enable HTTPS: Enables Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS) over Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL). SSL encrypts user names, passwords, and data during transmission, and authenticates the
Rack PDU by digital certificate. When HTTPS is enabled, your browser displays a small lock
icon.
See “Creating and Installing Digital Certificates” in the Security Handbook, available at
www.apc.com.
HTTP Port: The TCP/IP port (80 by default) used to communicate by HTTP with the Rack
PDU.
HTTPS Port: The TCP/IP port (443 by default) used to communicate by HTTPS with the Rack
PDU.
For either of these ports, you can change the port setting to any unused port from 5000 to 32768
for additional security. Users must then use a colon (:) in the address field of the browser to
specify the port number. For example, for a port number of 5000 and an IP address of
152.214.12.114:
http://152.214.12.114:5000
https://152.214.12.114:5000
