Interfaces for Power IQ Proxy Power Control Connections
Add a Power IQ Proxy power control interface when you want to use CC-SG to control power to a Power IQ IT device that you've added to CC-SG as a node. This enables you to control power to nodes connected to PDUs not managed by CC-SG.
To add an interface for Power IQ Proxy power control connections:
Enter the IT device's External Key. The External Key must match between Power IQ and CC-SG. Maximum of 255 characters. Commas are not allowed. The default value is the node name. You can change this value.
If the IT device has already been added to Power IQ, find the external key on the IT device's page in the Data Center tab, then enter the text in the External Key field.
If the IT device has not been added to Power IQ yet, accept the default value for the external key or change it, but make sure to use the same value when adding the IT device to Power IQ. You can quickly make a file of all node and interface information by exporting. See Export Nodes.
Select the Power IQ that manages the IT device in the Managing Device field. You must add information about this Power IQ to CC-SG before it appears in this field. See Configuring Power IQ Services.
Type a description of this interface in the Description field.
