You can perform a Secure Copy (SCP) command to update the Legrand PDU firmware, do bulk
configuration, or back up and restore the configuration.

Firmware Update via SCP
Same as any Legrand PDU firmware update, all user management operations are suspended and all login
attempts fail during the SCP firmware update. For details, see
Updating the Legrand PDU Firmware
(on
page 260).
Warning: Do NOT perform the firmware upgrade over a wireless network connection.
To update the firmware via SCP:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
scp <firmware file> <user name>@<device ip>:/fwupdate
<firmware file>
is the Legrand PDU firmware's filename. If the firmware file is not in the current
directory, you must include the path in the filename.
<user name>
is the "admin" or any user profile with the Firmware Update permission.
<device ip> is the IP address or hostname of the Legrand PDU where you want to upload the
specified file.
2. Type the password when prompted, and press Enter.
3. The system transmits the specified firmware file to the Legrand PDU, and shows the transmission speed
and percentage.
4. When the transmission is complete, it shows the following message, indicating that the Legrand PDU
starts to update its firmware now. Wait until the upgrade completes.
Starting firmware update. The connection will be closed now.
SCP example:
scp pdu-px2-030410-44599.bin admin@192.168.87.50:/fwupdate
Windows PSCP command:
PSCP in Windows works in a similar way to the SCP.
pscp <firmware file> <user name>@<device ip>:/fwupdate
Bulk Configuration via SCP
Like performing bulk configuration via the web interface, there are two steps with the bulk configuration using
the SCP commands:
a. Save a configuration from a source Legrand PDU.
b. Copy the configuration file to one or multiple destination Legrand PDU.
