RPS Series: Remote Power Switches - User's Guide
5.3.3.1. Plug Passwords and Co-Location Features
The Plug Passwords, which are defined via the Plug Parameters Menu(s) allow
you to determine which plugs an individual user will be permitted to control.
When a plug password is entered while logging into command mode, the user
will be able to issue switching and reboot commands for the corresponding
plug, and every other plug that shares this same password.
For example, if the plug password "switch" is defined for plugs 1, 2, and three,
then if a user logs into command mode using the password "switch", that user
will be allowed to issue switching and reboot commands to plugs 1, 2, and 3,
but not plugs 4 through 16.
Note that the Plug Passwords do not allow access to configuration functions,
and users are only allowed to view the status of the plugs that are permitted by
their password.
