11. Remote Browser Control Using a CM/IM4000


The IP Power 9258 is a simple browser controlled power switch, without the security features
needed for open public network connection or remote out-of-band control (dial-in). However when
the IP Power is accessed through an IM42000 gateway or CM4000 console server, the inbuilt
SSH tunneling (SDT) provides secure public access. The IM/CM4000 Management Consoles
also are all preconfigured with the HTTP commands for the IP Power 9258 power strip, so power
strip control is simple:

12. Out-of-Band Access Using a CM/IM4000


The IM/CM4000 gateway provides out-of-band (OoB) access through a dial in modem (or through
an alternate broadband connection for IM4200). To configure the IM/CM4000 for OoB dial-in
access:

1.

Connect a modem to the IM/CM4000 console port using a 319004 adaptor with
standard UTP Cat 5 cable (the CM4001 has a DB9 console port, so it will need to use a
31900 and a 319004 adaptor)

2.

Configure the IM/CM4000 gateway for OoB dial-in and set up the remote client dial-in
software

3.

Configure the IM/CM4000 gateway with the IP Power 9258 as a HTTP accessible Host
(so it can be controlled securely with SDTConnector)

4.

Configure SDTConnector so it will access the remote the IM/CM4000 gateway using
dial out, then connect to the IP Power using HTTP
