Add a Powerstrip Connected to an SX 3.1 Device
The procedure for adding a powerstrip connected to an SX 3.1 device
varies, based on whether the SX 3.1 device has been added to CC-SG.
If the PowerStrip is connected to the SX 3.1 device and the device has not
yet been added to CC-SG:
1. Add the SX 3.1 device to CC-SG. See
Add a KVM or Serial Device
(on page 54).
2. CCSG detects the PowerStrip and adds it automatically. The
PowerStrip will appear in the Devices tab beneath the SX 3.1 device
to which it is connected.
If the SX 3.1 device has already been added to CC-SG and the PowerStrip is
connected to the device later:
1. Add the SX 3.1 device to CC-SG. See
Add a KVM or Serial Device
(on page 54).
2. Configure the ports of the SX 3.1 device. See
Configuring Ports
(on
page 60).
3. In the Devices tab, select the SX 3.1 device to which the PowerStrip
is connected.
4. Click the + next to the device icon to expand the list of ports.
5. Right-click the SX 3.1 port to which the PowerStrip is connected, and
select Add Powerstrip from the pop-up menu.
6. Enter the number of outlets that the PowerStrip contains, and then
click OK.
Next Steps:
1. Configure outlets. See
Configuring Outlets on a PowerStrip
(on
page 99).
2. Associate each outlet with the node that it powers. See
Interfaces
for Managed Powerstrip Connections
(on page 130).
