EMG™ Edge Management Gateway User Guide 232
11: Remote Power Managers
The EMG supports managing remote power managers (RPMs) for devices from over 140 vendors.
The RPM can be either a power distribution unit (PDU) or uninterruptible power source/supply
(UPS), and can be managed via SNMP, serial port, network and USB connections. The RPMs
web page displays a list of all currently managed RPMs with an overview of their current status,
with options to control and view detailed status for each RPM, depending on its supported
capabilities.
For notes on optimizing the management of specific devices, see
Optimizing and Troubleshooting RPM Behavior (on page 244).
