5. Type the new device name in the Device name field.
6. Type the IP Address or Hostname of the new device in the Device IP or Hostname field. For

hostname rules, see Terminology/Acronyms in Chapter 1: Introduction.

For example, the default UDP port for an IPMI device is 623.

device and CC-SG in the Heartbeat timeout (sec) field.

12. For IPMI Servers, enter an Interval that is used to check for availability and an

Authentication Method, which needs to match what has been configured on the IPMI Server.

Note: You will not see a TCP port number or Heartbeat timeout field for HP iLO/RILOE devices,
older Dominion SX units (version 2.4 or earlier), IPMI Servers, and Generic devices.

13. Click OK to add the device or Cancel to exit without saving.
14. For Raritan devices, if the firmware version of the device is not compatible with CC-SG, a

message will alert you and ask if you want to proceed (please see Chapter 2: Accessing CC-
SG
for additional information). Click Yes to add the device to CC-SG, or No to cancel the
operation. You can easily upgrade the device firmware after adding it to CC-SG (see section
Upgrade Device later in this chapter).
