Overview
The CPS serial over IP network appliance and its ports are easily configured and managed to meet
your requirements for device connection, user authentication, access control, power status
monitoring, port history information display and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
compliance for use with third party network management products. Support for SSH access using
third party clients is also provided.
Configuring Serial Port Settings
You may configure a CPS port to support one of two types of target devices (TDs): SPC and
console. The SPC power control device provides enhanced security options, including password
protection, port-specific access rights and port groupings. For more information, see the SPC
Installer/User Guide. A console TD may be a router, firewall, server or other supported serial device.
By default, ports are configured with the settings listed in Table 3.1.
