Remote Device Administration

When logged into an UST-IP unit as a user with administrative privileges, UST-IP allows you to perform
many powerful device administration tasks remotely.

An Administrative user can access UST-IP's lowest level configuration menus (explained in detail in
Chapter 4), by double-clicking the "Admin" port entry of an UST-IP device shown in the RRC Navigator.

Remote firmware upgrades may be performed by selecting Tools

Update Device on the RRC Menu Bar.

RRC will prompt you to locate a Raritan firmware distribution file (*.RFP format), which can be found on
the Raritan web site (www.raritan.com) when available. Be sure to read all instructions included in
firmware distributions before performing an upgrade.

Device Restart

Administrative users may restart UST-IP units by selecting Tools

Restart Device on the RRC Menu

local computers for archiving.
