Power control using the time schedule
Wake on LAN (WOL)
The IP Power can be set to power on or off power outlets at specified times. Select Power
Schedule from the left hand menu.
Through its network port, the IP Power can send a Wake on LAN packet to a shutdown or
hibernating PC on your network, causing it to power up. This facility presumes:
1. The PC’s motherboard must support the WOL function, and it must be enabled in the
BIOS (typically under Power Management). The PC must be connected to the same
Ethernet network as the IP Power via its network port.
2. The PC’s network card’s WOL connector must be connected to the motherboard, or
the network port must be integrated into the motherboard.
After setting up the motherboard and network card, use the WOL function by following two
steps:
ꢀ
ꢀ
Go to Network Wakeup on the IP Power control web pages
Enter the MAC address (the network card’s physical
address) of the PC and click Send – the PC will be powered
on

=0+P63=1
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:

13. Remote Serial Port Control of the IP Power
The IP Power is a principally a browser controlled unit, with power control effected over the LAN
using HTTP commands, or a browser. The IP Power RS232 serial port mainly provides diagnostic
and status information (e.g. sending out its IP address and power on messages during Power On
Self Test).
However the IP Power serial port also supports emergency power control, and this can be
accessed using the IM/CM4000. To configure the IP Power for serial control:
1. Ensure you have the latest version of firmware for the IP Power (V1.3.8A and later) and
IM/CM4000 (post V2.1.0u7)
2. Connect the IP Power 9258's CONSOLE RS232 port to the LOCAL console ports on
IM/CM4000. For CM4001 and SD4002 devices this connection will use a standard
UTP Cat 5 cable with a 319000 adapter at each end. For all other IM/CM4000
gateways the connection will require only one 319000 adaptor
3. Configure the IM/CM4000 gateway for OoB dial-in and set up the remote client dial-in
software
4. Set up the IM/CM4000 with IP Power 9258 configured as a serially controlled power
strip device
5. Configure SDTConnector so it will access the remote the IM/CM4000 gateway using
dial out, then connect to the Console Manager
