to CC-SG? - The Dominion unit is active.
- The Dominion unit has not reached the maximum number of
configured user accounts.
Which version of Java will
Raritan’s CC-SG be
supporting? For server and client side minimum Java requirements, please
refer to the Compatibility Matrix on
http://www.raritan.com/support . Click Firmware Upgrades
and then CommandCenter Secure Gateway.
An administrator added a
new node to the CC-SG
database and assigned it to
me, how can I see it in my
Nodes tree? To update the tree and see the newly assigned node, click the
Refresh shortcut button on the toolbar. Remember that
refreshing CC-SG will close all of your current console sessions.
How will the Windows
desktop be supported in the
future? Accessing CC-SG from outside the firewall can be achieved by
configuring the right ports on the firewall. The following ports
are standard ports:
80: for HTTP access via web browser
443: for HTTPS access via web browser
8080: for CC-SG server operations
2400: for Proxy mode connections
5001: for IPR/DKSX/DKX/ P2-SC event notification
If there is firewall between two cluster nodes, the following
ports should be opened for cluster to be worked properly:
8732: for cluster nodes heartbeat
5432: for cluster nodes DB replication
What are some design
guidelines for large-scale
systems? Any constraints or
assumptions? Raritan provides two models for server scalability: the
datacenter model and the network model.
The datacenter model uses Paragon to scale to thousands of
systems in a single datacenter. This is the most effective and
cost-efficient way to scale a single location. It also supports the
network model with IP-Reach and the IP User Station (UST-IP).
The network model scales through use of the TCP/IP network
and aggregates access through CC-SG, so users don’t have to
know IP addresses or the topology of access devices. It also
provides the convenience of single sign-on.
Authentication
How many user accounts
can be created for CC-SG? Check your licensing restrictions. There is no specified limit to
the number of user accounts that can be created for CC-SG, but
the number is not limitless. The size of the database, the
performance of the processor, and the amount of memory on the
hosting server will determine how many user accounts can
actually be created.
Can I assign specific node
access to a specific user? Yes, if you have Administrator permissions. Administrators
have the ability to assign specific nodes per user.
If we had more than 1,000
users, how would this be
managed? Do you support
Active Directory? CC-SG works with Microsoft Active Directory, Sun iPlanet or
Novell eDirectory. If a user account already exists in an
authentication server, then CC-SG supports remote
authentication using AD/TACACS+ /RADIUS/LDAP
authentication.
