Using an Ethernet cable, attach one end to the Ethernet
port on the front of the PDU, and the other end to a
network port.
Step 2 – Establish the PDU IP address
Assigning an IP address to the CyberPower PDU requires
the user to have an available IP address that is valid on the
respective network. If an available IP address is unknown,
contact the network administrator to obtain one.
DHCP is enabled by factory default. If the PDU does not receive
an IP address from the network's DHCP server, it will default to
192.168.20.177.
There are multiple methods for setting up the IP address on the
PDU. Please follow the instructions below for the method that is

Appendix C-PDU Daisy-Chain Function
The daisy-chain function allows up to four PDUs to be connected
together to be monitored and controlled from one IP address.
Ethernet
Host
Guest #1
Guest #2
Guest #3
When PDUs are connected, two roles are defined: Host and Guest.
Up to three Guest PDUs can be connected to one Host PDU. The
Guest PDUs will be recognized by serial number and their order
within the daisy-chain.
Note: To perform the daisy-chain function, the firmware version of
the connected PDUs needs to be the same (v1.08 or above).
How to connect the PDUs together?
Use one Ethernet cable and connect one end of it to the daisy-
chain (Out) port on the Host PDU and the other end to the daisy-
chain (In/ENV) port on the Guest 1 PDU to connect the PDUs (as
shown below).
Host PDU
Out port
Guest #1 PDU
In/ENV port
What remote management protocols are supported in PDU daisy-
chains?
Currently users can monitor and control daisy-chained PDUs
through Web interface (HTTP/HTTPS) or SNMP protocols.

Appendix C-PDU Daisy-Chain Function
How to switch between Host and Guest PDUs on the Web
interface?
Functionality supported by daisy-chained PDUs will have the Host/
Guest # drop down menu displayed on the Web interface (as
shown below).
Can I upgrade the firmware version of the Guest PDUs through
the Host PDU?
Yes, you can upgrade the firmware using the Upgrade and
Configuration Utility, FTP (network connection required), or USB
port. Once the Hostcompletes the PDU firmware upgrade, it will
trigger its Guest PDUs to upgrade the firmware automatically. It
takes about 5 minutes for the Guest PDUs to upgrade, regardless of
the number of PDUs in the series.
What will happen if an Ethernet cable is disconnected in the PDU
daisy-chain?
For example, if four PDUs are connected and the cable connecting
Guest 1 and 2 is disconnected, then Guest 2 and 3 will no longer be
detected by the Host PDU. An event showing that Guest 2 and 3
are removed will be recorded in the Host PDU. Meanwhile, Guest 2
and 3 will create a new daisy-chain where Guest 2 becomes a Host
and Guest 3 becomes Guest 1 to the new Host.
Ethernet
Host
Guest #1
Guest #2
Host
Guest #3
Guest #1
In the above example, if the disconnected Ethernet cable is re-
connected, will the role of the PDUs stay the same?
Yes, when the disconnected cable between Guest 1 and 2 is re-
connected, Guest 2 and 3 will revert to their previous roles.
What happens if one PDU in the daisy-chain is powered off?
For example, if four PDUs are connected and Guest 1 is powered
o, an event showing that Guest 1, 2 and 3 are removed will be
recorded in the Host PDU. Guest 2 and 3 will not create another
daisy-chain.
Does the Host PDU record the logs of the Guest PDUs and itself?
Yes, the Host PDU records the logs from all Guest PDUs daisy-
chained to it.
Will the Logs of the Guest PDUs recorded in the Host PDU be
cleared if the Guest PDUs are removed from the Host PDU?
No, the Logs of the Guest PDUs will remain even after the Guest
PDUs are removed.
35
Appendix C-PDU Daisy-Chain Function
Does the Host PDU record the Status Records of the Guest PDUs
and itself?
Yes, the Host PDU records the Status Records for all the PDUs in
the daisy-chain.
Will the Status Records of the Guest PDUs logged in the Host
PDU be cleared if the Guest PDUs are disconnected from the Host
PDU?
Yes, once the Guest PDUs are removed, the Status Records logged
in the Host PDU will be cleared. As long as the Host PDU does not
connect to other PDUs, the Status Records of the disconnected
PDU can be displayed when it is re-connected to the Host PDU. If
the Host PDU connects to dierent PDUs, the Status Records of the
removed PDU will be entirely cleared.
Are the Guest PDUs able to connect to the network when they are
daisy-chained?

to daisy-chain the PDUs?
