• 
Description: Enter a text name to easily identify the Raritan device that you are configuring, such as 
"Atlanta_Datacenter." 
• 
Connection Type: Select TCP/IP Connection for a LAN/WAN connection; select Dial-Up Connection for a 
direct analog modem connection to the Raritan device. 
 
For a TCP/IP Connection, select the manner by which RRC should locate your Raritan device: 
• 
IP Address: The IP address assigned to your Raritan device (see Chapter 4: Administrative Functions, 
Network Configuration
). 
• 
Name: The name assigned to your Raritan device during initial setup (see Chapter 4: Administrative 
Functions, Network Configuration
). 
Note:    If dynamic DHCP addressing is used for Dominion KSX, then Find Dominion KSX by 
Name 
should be used. 
Note:  The factory default unit name for each Dominion KSX produced is <Dominion KSX>. To 
change the default name on a Dominion KSX unit and institute a unique name, see Chapter 4. 
 
• 
DNS Name: If you have configured your DNS server to resolve a DNS name to the IP address that you have 
assigned to your Raritan device, you may use this DNS name to access your Raritan device. 
 
For a Dial-Up Connection, enter the dialing parameters that RRC should use to establish a connection: 
• 
Phone Number: Be sure to include any additional codes that RRC should dial to establish a connection, such as 
country codes, area codes, outside line access codes, etc. 
• 
Modem: Select the modem, as configured in Windows, that RRC should use to dial and connect to your Raritan 
device. 
 
Select a TCP Port to use: 
• 
Use Default Port Number: Dominion KSX is configured by default to use TCP Port 5000 for communicating 
with RRC. Dominion KSX can be configured to use a different TCP Port (see Chapter 4: Administrative 
Functions,  Network Configuration
); if so, uncheck the Use Default Port Number option, and enter the 
configured TCP Port to be used.
