Hi there,
I'm working on an application that will be able to control power switches located on the rack power distribution unit application. Is there anyway to whitelist my angular front end application so that i can make post and get requests to the rack power distribution unit application apis? I tried calling the apis but keep getting an "No Access-Control_Allow-Headers" error. I looked further into this and it seems my frontend requires a nmc object key that is used in the endpoint. (e.g http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx/NMC/kQtlr8AEz8bRMchJ73RGiA/home.htm . But I'm not sure on how to retrieve this key as I assume this key is retrieved when logging into the application. I also tried calling the login apis first but still get Access-Control-Allow-Headers errors. Any help would be great.

The easiest way is to log into the PDU via SSH and then issue the ? command, some commands are slightly different for different units and firmwares:
apc>?
System Commands:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For command help: command ?
? about alarmcount boot bye cd
clrrst console date delete dir dns
eapol email eventlog exit firewall format
ftp help lang lastrst ledblink logzip
netstat ntp ping portspeed prompt pwd
quit radius reboot resetToDef session smtp
snmp snmptrap snmpv3 system tcpip tcpip6
user userdflt web whoami xferINI xferStatus
Device Commands:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't think this method is supported but for what your trying to accomplish I'd recommend using either an SSH script that will log-in and run the command to control the outlets or using SNMP to turn the outlets on or off.

I've opted to use a nodejs server to that communicates with the pdu whenever my web app makes a request. The nodejs server will send ssh commands to the pdu. I was wondering though if there is any documentation on what ssh commands I can use to communicate with the pdu to login, turn on/off switches?
Thanks for the help,
Albert
