The network connection automatically receives an IP address through the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) if available on the network. If a DHCP is enabled but a DHCP
server is not available, the eNMC will fall back to the last-used IP address setting. Alternately, it is
possible to set a static IP address by using either the LCD menu or a serial connection command
line interface (CLI).
You can also connect up to four ePDUs together using the Daisy Chain port and an RJ-45 split-
ter (provided). This enables multiple ePDUs to communicate over one Ethernet port. Refer to the
Eaton ePDU G3 Operation Manual for detailed instructions. View the operation manual online at:

NETWORK COMMUNICATION CONFIGURATION
SETUP USING THE LCD — STATIC IP ADDRESS
SETUP USING A SERIAL CONNECTION — STATIC IP ADDRESS
1. The ePDU defaults to DHCP enabled when deliv-
ered.
2. Connect to a network that has a DHCP server and
wait 20 seconds.
3. Obtain the IP address from the LCD home
screen.
COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT
Some Eaton ePDU G3 power distribution products have an internal ePDU Network
Management and Control (eNMC) module that manages the ePDU communication
interfaces. Basic network communication configuration must be performed before the
Web or Command Line Interface (CLI) user interfaces can be accessed and used. This
sheet describes how to set eNMC parameters and enable the module.

COMMUNICATION STATUS LEDS
The ePDU front panel includes communication and monitoring ports, LED status indica-
tors, and operation buttons. The ports and the associated LED indicators are described
in the following table.
After establishing a serial connection, perform the following steps:
1. In the terminal emulator session window, enter the default user name (admin) at the login
prompt. For example:
Enter Login: admin
Enter Password:
2. Type admin (default) at the password prompt. Press Enter.
3. The CLI uses a “get” command to return the value of a setting and a “set” command to
change the value of a setting. For example:
PDU#0>set System.Network.DHCP 0
PDU#0>get System.Network.DHCP
0
4. Type set System.Network.DHCP 0 and press Enter to modify the value (0 = disabled and
1= enabled). For example:
PDU#0>set System.Network.DHCP 0
0
5. Set the IP address to a value provided by your system administrator.
PDU#0>set System.Network.IPAddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
6. If necessary, set the network Subnet Mask to the value required by your system administrator.
PDU#0>set System.Network.IPMask 255.255.yyy.yyy
255.255.yyy.yyy
7. Set the network Gateway to the value required by your system administrator.
PDU#0>set System.Network.IPGateway zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
8. Wait 10 seconds. Use the reset button to restart the eNMC and apply the new settings.
ote:NFor alternate instructions to access the CLI using Telnet, refer to the Eaton ePDU G3 Operation Manual. View the operation manual online at: http://www.eaton.com/ePDU.

Use the RJ45-to-DB9 serial cable that is provided. If your computer does not have a DB9 (RS-232) connector, a USB-to-RS-232 adapter can be purchased separately. Access the CLI using a terminal
emulation program such as HyperTerminal®, PuTTY, or TeraTerm. To set up the serial port using your selected terminal emulation program, use the following settings:
