Establishing a New Connection
Note: Depending on your version of the JRE, you might receive a
certificate message when using the standalone application to access a
Dominion device. You have to accept the certificate in order to establish
the connection.
To connect to a device, double-click the device's icon in the Navigator,
then type your user name and password to connect. You can also right-
click on the device name in the Navigator and select New Connection.
Note: The default IP-Reach or Dominion login user name is admin and
the default password is raritan. You have administrative privileges using
these login credentials.
Passwords are case sensitive and must be entered in the exact case
combination in which they were created. To ensure security, change the
default user name password as soon as possible.
If you do not see an icon for your IP-Reach or Dominion device in the
Navigator, follow the instructions in the Creating Profiles section (see
"Creating Profiles" on page 53) to create a new connection profile.
If you are having problems connecting to a device, be sure to check the
following:
• Username: Raritan usernames are not case-sensitive.
• Password: Raritan passwords are case-sensitive.
• TCP Port: If you have configured your device to use a non-default
TCP Port, this information must be entered into its connection
profile.
• Firewall Settings: If you are accessing a device through a firewall,
that firewall must be configured to allow two-way communication
on TCP Port 5000 (or the custom TCP Port to which your device has
been configured).
• Security Key: If you have configured your device to require a group
security key, that key must be entered into the device's connection
profile.
Note: If you are running MPC on Internet Explorer with both a Microsoft
firewall and a non-Microsoft firewall utility installed, IE will display a
message telling you that MPC is already running (even if it is not in fact
running). To avoid this, deactivate one of your firewalls, or use a
browser such as Mozilla or Firefox.
