Introduction
Overview
ATEN NRGence PE7216 / PE7324 / PE8216 / PE8324 eco PDUs are
intelligent PDUs that contain 16 or 24 AC power outlets, and are available in
various IEC or NEMA socket configurations. PE8 series features NRGence’s
proactive overload protection, which automatically powers off outlets when a
current overload occurs.
NRGence eco PDUs provide a secure, centralized, intelligent, power
management (power on, off, cycle) for data center IT equipment (servers,
storage systems, KVM switches, network devices, serial data devices, etc.), as
well as the ability to monitor the center's health environment via sensors
1
. The
basic characteristics of each model are shown in the table on page 3.
NRGence eco PDUs offer remote power control combined with real-time
power measurement — allowing you to control and monitor the power status
of its powered devices via TCP/IP connection, either at the PDU device, bank,
or outlet level, depending on the model, from anywhere
2
.
The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to switch
each device on/off. The eco PDU also offers comprehensive power analysis
reports that can separate departments and/or locations, providing precise
measurements of current, voltage, power, and watt-hour in a real-time display.
Installation and operation is fast and easy: simply plug the cables into their
appropriate ports and users can operate via its intuitive browser-based
configuration and management. Since the eco PDU firmware is upgradeable
over the Internet, you can keep your device up to date with the latest
functionality improvements, simply by downloading updates from our website
as they become available.
NRGence eco PDU supports any 3rd-party v3 SNMP manager software and
NRGence eco DC (Energy & DCIM management web GUI). eco DC provides
you with an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive
and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU
device and monitor power status of the equipment connected.
With its advanced security features and ease of operation, the eco PDU is the
most convenient, reliable, and cost-effective way to remotely manage power

Login String / IP Filter / Mac Filter
Login String
The Login String entry field is used to specify a login string (in addition to the
IP address) that users must include when accessing the eco PDU device with a
browser. For example:
192.168.0.126/abcdefg
The following characters are allowed:
0–9 a–z A–Z ~ ! @ $ * ( ) _ ‘ ,
Item Description
Minimum Username Length Sets the minimum number of characters required for
a username. Acceptable values are from 1–16.
Minimum Password Length Sets the minimum number of characters required for
a password. Acceptable values are from 1–16.
Password Must Contain At Least Checking any of these items requires users to include
at least one of the specified items in their password.
Note: This policy does not affect existing user
accounts. Only new user accounts created after this
policy has been enabled, and users required to
change their passwords are affected.
Disable Duplicate Login Check this to prevent users from logging in with the
same account at the same time.
eco PDU PE Series User Manual
53
The following characters are not allowed:
& ^ { } ‘ ’ < > | " % ” : / ? # \ [Space] + - = [ ] ;
Compound characters (É Ç ñ ... etc.)
Note: 1. There must be a forward slash between the IP address and the string.
2. If no login string is specified here, anyone will be able to access the
eco PDU device login page using the IP address alone. This makes
your installation less secure.
For security purposes, we recommend that you change this string occasionally.
IP Filter / MAC Filter
If any filters have been configured, they appear in the IP Filter and/or MAC
Filter list boxes.
IP and MAC Filters control access to the eco PDU based on the IP and/or MAC
addresses of the client computers attempting to connect. A maximum of 5 IP
filters and 5 MAC filters are allowed.
To enable IP and/or MAC filtering, check the IP Filter Enable and/or MAC
Filter Enable checkbox.
If the include button is checked, all addresses within the filter range are
allowed access, while all other addresses are denied access.
If the exclude button is checked, all addresses within the filter range are
denied access, while all other addresses are allowed access.
Adding Filters
To add an IP filter, do the following:
1. Click Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:
2. Specify the filter address in the dialog box (for example, 192.168.0.200),
then click OK.
A second dialog box, similar to the one below, appears:
Chapter 8. Setup
54
3. To filter a single IP address, key in the same address as the start IP. To
filter a continuous range of addresses, key in the end number of the range
(for example, 192.168.0.225).
4. After filling in the address, click OK.
Repeat these steps for any additional IP address ranges you want to filter.
To add a MAC filter, do the following:
1. Click Add. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:
2. Specify the MAC address in the dialog box (for example, 001074670000),
then click OK.
Repeat these steps for any additional MAC addresses you want to filter.
IP Filter / MAC Filter Conflict
If there is a conflict between an IP and MAC filter — for example, where a
computer’s IP address is allowed by the IP filter but its MAC address is
excluded by the MAC filter — then that computer’s access is blocked.
In other words, if either filter blocks a computer, then the computer is blocked,
no matter what the other filter is set to.
Modifying Filters
To modify a filter, select it in the IP Filter or MAC Filter list box and click
Modify. The Modify dialog box is similar to the Add dialog box. When it
comes up, simply delete the old address(es) and replace it with the new one(s).

the ones assigned for the eco PDU device. (See Device Management,
page 43.)
Note: su/user supports view ports only; su/administrator supports all eco PDU
functions.
Private Certificate
When logging in over a secure (SSL) connection, a signed certificate is used to
verify that the user is logging in to the intended site. For enhanced security, the
Private Certificate section allows you to use your own private encryption key
and signed certificate, rather than the default ATEN certificate.
There are two methods for establishing your private certificate: generating a
self-signed certificate or importing a third-party certificate authority (CA)
signed certificate.
Generating a Self-Signed Certificate
If you wish to create your own self-signed certificate, a free utility —
openssl.exe — is available for download over the web.
Obtaining a CA Signed SSL Server Certificate
For better ensured security, we recommend using a third-party certificate
authority (CA) signed certificate. To obtain a third-party signed certificate, go
to a CA (Certificate Authority) website to apply for an SSL certificate. After
the CA sends you the certificate and private encryption key, save them to a
convenient location on your computer.
Importing the Private Certificate
To import the private certificate, do the following:
1. Click Browse to the right of Private Key to locate the location path of the
private encryption key file, and select it.
2. Click Browse to the right of Certificateto locate the location path of the
certificate file, and select it.

IP Address Determination
If you are an administrator logging in for the first time, you need to access the
eco PDU in order to give it an IP address that users can connect to. There are
two methods to choose from. In each case, your client computer must be on the
same network segment as the eco PDU. After you have connected and logged
in, you can give the device a fixed network address. (See Device Management,
page 43.)
Method 1:
For computers running Windows, an IP address can be determined and/or
assigned with the IP Installer utility. The utility can be obtained from the
Download area of our website or from the software CD. Look under Driver/
SW, and the model of your device. After downloading the utility to your
computer, do the following:
1. Unzip the contents of IPInstaller.zip to a directory on your hard drive.
2. Go to the directory that you unzipped the IPInstaller program to and run
IPInstaller.exe. A dialog box similar to the one below appears:

4. Select either Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP), or Specify an
IP address. If you chose the latter, fill the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and
Gateway fields with the information appropriate to your network.
5. Click Set IP.
6. After the IP address shows up in the Device List, click Exit to end the
program.
Method 2:
1. Set your computer's IP address to 192.168.0.XXX
Where XXX represents any number or numbers except 60 (192.168.0.60 is
the default address of the eco PDU).
2. Specify the device’s default IP address (192.168.0.60) in your browser to
access it.
3. Assign a fixed IP address for the device (see IPv4 Configuration, page 45),
that is suitable for the network segment that it resides on.
4. After you log out, reset your computer's IP address to its original value.
5. Once you have logged in, go to Network Settings to set up the permanent
IP environment (see IPv4 Configuration, page 45).
Method 3:
NRGence eco DC allows you to determine/assign an IP address in order to
configure a PDU device and monitor power status of the equipment connected
