User Account Setup
The P2 can allow up to 8 user accounts. By default, there are 2 accounts created: An “Admin” account and a
“User” account. Use the following guidelines when creating user accounts:
Admin: An admin account will be able to remove or change existing user accounts, take over power outlets or
user serial console ports, and change system settings.
User: A user account can make changes to port settings if the “Permission” under the “Power Outlet Setup”
menu is set to Open, as well as make system configuration changes.
Guest: A guest account is only able to view the system configuration settings and operate unreserved outlets.
System Control
The System Control menu allows you to set the date and time, and change the system’s name, in addition to
other administrative options like [using/accessing] Telnet or SNMP.
To set up the System Control, identify/specify the following:
System (or Site) Name: Change the name of the P2 according to your setup and location.
Time (hh:mm:ss) : Set the time.
Date (mm/dd/yyy): Set the date.
Master Serial Port Mode: Set to Console.
