Access a Configured Network Management Card
Overview
After the Network Management Card is running on your network, you can access the configured Network
Management Card through the following interfaces:
• Web interface (HTTP or HTTPS protocol)
• Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH)
• SNMP
• FTP or Secure CoPy (SCP) to upgrade firmware
• Modbus
For more information on the interfaces, see the User Guide.
Web interface
Use Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
(IE) 5.5 and higher (on Windows
®
operating systems only), Mozilla-based
browsers that support Firefox
®
1.x (on all operating systems), or Netscape
®
7.x and higher (on all operating
systems) to access the Web interface of the cooling unit. Other commonly available browsers also may work
but have not been fully tested by Schneider Electric.
You can use either of the following protocols when you use the Web interface:
• The HTTP protocol (enabled by default), which provides authentication by user name and password but
no encryption.
• The HTTPS protocol, which provides extra security through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL); encrypts user
names, passwords, and data being transmitted; and authenticates the Network Management Card by
means of digital certificates.
To access the Web interface and configure the security of your device on the network:
1. Address the Network Management Card by its IP address or DNS name (if configured).
2. Enter the user name and password (by default, apc and apc for an Administrator).
3. To enable or disable the HTTP or HTTPS protocols, use the Network menu on the Administration tab,
and select the access option under the Web heading on the left navigation menu.
For more information on selecting and configuring network security, see the Security
Handbook, available on the Utility CD or from the Schneider Electric Web site,
www.schneider-electric.com.
Telnet and SSH
You can access the control console through Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH), depending on which is enabled.
Select the Administration tab, the Network option on the top menu bar, and then the access option under
Console on the left navigation menu. By default, Telnet is enabled. Enabling SSH automatically disables
Telnet.
Telnet for basic access: Telnet provides the basic security of authentication by user name and password, but
not the high-security benefits of encryption. To use Telnet to access the control console of the Network
Management Card:
1. At a command prompt, use the following command line, and press ENTER:
telnet address
