Configuring the Proxy Server (if necessary)
Most networks do not require a proxy server to connect to devices within
their intranet. However, if your network configuration requires the use of
a proxy server for https connections between the PPU system and the
utility meter, set the hostname of the proxy server with the following
command:
/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -p proxy[:port]
Where proxy is the fully qualified hostname or IP address of the proxy
server and port is the (optional) port number.
Configuring the Proxy Server’s Username and
Password (if required by the proxy server)
If you are using a proxy server you may need to set the username and a
password for the username. To set the username and password (if
required) for the proxy server, execute the following command, which
starts an interactive session to make the settings:
/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -u
Configuring the System Identifier (if desired)
The system identifier of a PPU system is the identifier you specify in
order to track your system. The default system identifier is the
hostname of your PPU system. If you desire to protect the hostname of
your PPU system, and do not want to use it as the system identifier,
you have the flexibility to change the system identifier to any value
you choose. Examples of a system identifier are: an asset number, a
HP support tag, or a description of a physical location.
To set the system identifier of the PPU system, execute the following
command:
/usr/sbin/ppuconfig -s system_id
Where system_id is an identifier for your PPU system.
