Add a Device

Devices must be added to CC-SG before you can configure ports or add Out-of-Band interfaces
to Nodes through those ports. Add Device is used to add devices whose properties you know and
can provide to CC-SG.

To add a device to CC-SG:

10. On the Devices menu, click Device Manager, and then click Add Device. The Add Device

screen appears.

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

14. Type the TCP communication port used to communicate with the device in the TCP port

number field. The default port number for most Raritan devices is 5000.

15. Type the name used to log onto this device in the Username field. If you followed the

Raritan Digital Solutions Deployment Guide to prepare your devices to add to CC-SG,
type the username for the CC-SG Administrative User you configured on the device.

16. Type the password needed to access this device in the Password field. If you followed the

Raritan Digital Solutions Deployment Guide to prepare your devices to add to CC-SG,

17. Type the time (in seconds) that should elapse before timeout between the new device and CC-

SG in the Heartbeat timeout (sec) field.

18. If applicable, check Allowed under Local Access if you want to allow users to have direct

access to this device while it is managed by CC-SG.

19. Optionally, type a short description of this device in the Description field.

20. Check Configure all ports if you want to automatically add all ports on this device to the

Devices tab, and create a Node for each port on this device in the Nodes tab. Corresponding
nodes and ports will be configured with matching names. If checked when the device is
added, a new node will be created for each port, and an out-of-band interface will be created
for that node.
