Note: The default port for a SOCKS proxy (1080) is different from
HTTP proxy (3128).
4. If you are using standalone MPC, you must also do the following:
i. Open the start.bat file in MPC directory with a text editor.
j. Insert the following parameters to the command line. Add them
before "-classpath": -DsocksProxyHost=<socks proxy ip addr>
-DsocksProxyPort=<socks proxy port>
The parameters should look as follows:
start javaw -Xmn128M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=70
-XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=50 -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true
-DsocksProxyHost=192.168.99.99 -DsocksProxyPort=1080
-classpath .\sdeploy.jar;.\sFoxtrot.jar;.\jaws.jar;.\sMpc.jar

Multi-Platform Client Interface
Raritan Multi-Platform Client (MPC) is a graphical user interface for the
Raritan product lines, providing remote access to target servers
connected to Raritan KVM over IP devices. For details on using MPC,
see the KVM and Serial Access Clients Guide available on Raritan's
website on the same page as the user guide. Instructions on launching
MPC are provided there.
Launching MPC from a Web Browser
Important: Regardless of the browser you use, you must allow
pop-ups from the Dominion device's IP address in order to open
MPC.
Important: Only Mac 10.5 and 10.6 with an Intel
®
processor can run
JRE 1.6 and, therefore, be used as a client. Mac 10.4.11 and 10.5.8
do not support MPC as a standalone client.
1. To open MPC from a client running any supported browser, type
http://IP-ADDRESS/mpc into the address line, where IP-ADDRESS
is the IP address of your Raritan device. MPC will open in a new
window.
Note: The Alt+Tab command will toggle between windows only on
the local system.
When MPC opens, the Raritan devices that were automatically
detected and which are found on your subnet are displayed in the
Navigator in tree format.
2. If your device is not listed by name in the navigator, add it manually:
a. Choose Connection > New Profile. The Add Connection window
opens.
