Chapter 2: Accessing CC-SG
Once you have configured CC-SG with an IP address and have defined at least one user, as
described in Raritan’s CommandCenter Secure Gateway Setup Guide, the CC-SG unit can be
placed at its final destination. Make all necessary hardware connections to make the unit
operational.
You can access CC-SG in several ways, each described in this chapter:
• Through a browser: CC-SG supports numerous Web browsers (please see the Compatibility
mware Upgrades then
CommandCenter for a complete list of browsers and platforms).
• Through a standalone client: Install the executable from the included CD and run this instead
of using the browser-based applet. This executable functions exactly like the downloaded
applet.
• Through SSH: Please note that remote devices connected via the serial port can be accessed
using this approach. Please see Chapter 12: Advanced Administration for additional
information.
• Through the Diagnostic Console: Provides emergency repair and diagnostics only and is not a
replacement for the primary GUI to configure and operate the CC-SG unit. Please see
Chapter 12: Advanced Administration for additional information.
Note: Users can be connected simultaneously, using the browser, standalone client, and SSH
while accessing the application.
Browser-Based Access
1. Using a supported Internet browser, enter the URL of the CC-SG: https://<IP address> (for
example, https://10.0.3.30). When the security alert window appears, click Yes to continue
with the procedure. CC-SG is always SSL enabled; when you connect via IE, the Security
Alert is displayed because the CA root certificate is not installed in the browser.
