Initial Software Configuration
You ma need to change network settings of Echola PDU device before connecting it to
our network's switch/router. If our network has a DHCP server then ou ma want to
skip this section and connect PDU Ethernet port to their network's switch/router and the
IP address will be assigned automaticall b our DHCP server. The assigned IP address
will be shown on the LCD panel. Use that IP to login into PDU and manage it.
If ou don't have a DHCP server running on our network then ou ma want to configure
Static IP; there are three wa s ou could do this:
1. Using NBNS (NetBIOS Name Service) of PDU
2. Using built-in DHCP server of PDU
3. Using Static IP configuration of our PC/Laptop

You would need a Windows based Laptop or a PC to configure PDU using this method for
the first time. You ma also need a ethernet crossover cable to connect PDU to a PC or a
Laptop but most of the modern PC/Laptops would work with either t pe of cable (straight
or crossover). Make sure the PC/Laptop IP option "Obtain IP address automaticall " is
checked in the Internet Protcol Properties of the ethernet interface. Now launch the
internet browser and t pe http://echolas s in the address bar and press Enter ke . Now
ou will be prompted with a PDU's login dialog; If this is first time then use default
username and password. After login, ou will see the main menu page of the PDU. Now
click on the Setup tab of the menu to bring the Network Config menu. From here ou can
assign static IP, subnet mask and gatewa and save our configuration. Thats it, now ou
are set to connect PDU to our network/switch/router and access it from remote.

The procedure is same as above NBNS except that instead of using hostname 'echolas s' in
our browser ou will have to use the IP address (like http://192.168.2.222) displa ed on
the LCD panel. This method works for non-windows PC/Laptop as well.
