3UPS Network Management Card 2 User’s Guide
Internal Management Features
Overview
Use the Web interface or the command line interface to view the status of the UPS and manage the UPS
and the Management Card. You can also use SNMP to monitor the status of the UPS.
For more information about the internal user interfaces, see “Web Interface” on page 26 and
“Command Line Interface” on page 8. See “SNMP” on page 67 for information about how
SNMP access to the Management Card is controlled.
Access priority for logging on
Only one user at a time can log on to the Management Card. The priority for access, beginning with the
highest priority, is as follows:
• Local access to the command line interface from a computer with a direct serial connection to the
Management Card
• Telnet or SSH access to the command line interface from a remote computer
• Web access, either directly or through InfraStruXure Central
Note: SNMP has Write + and Write access. Write + has top access and enables logging on
when another user is already logged on. Write access is equivalent to Web access.
Types of user accounts
The Management Card has three levels of access (Administrator, Device User, and Read-Only User),
which are protected by user name and password requirements.
• An Administrator can use all of the menus in the Web interface and all of the commands in the
command line interface. The default user name and password are both apc.
• A Device User can access only the following:
– In the Web interface, the menus on the UPS tab and the event and data logs, accessible under
the Events and Data headings on the left navigation menu of the Logs tab. The event and data
logs display no button to clear the log.
– In the command line interface, the equivalent features and options.
The default user name is device, and the default password is apc.
• A Read-Only User has the following restricted access:
– Access through the Web interface only.
– Access to the same tabs and menus as a Device User, but without the capability to change
configurations, control devices, delete data, or use file transfer options. Links to configuration
options are visible but disabled. The event and data logs display no button to clear the log.
The default user name is readonly, and the default password is apc.
To set User Name and Password values for the three account types, see “Setting user access”
on page 56.
