3. Edit the DPA SSH TCP Port to which SSH client will connect, and
then click OK.

Services page, select TCP port on Direct Port Access Mode, and
then click OK.
5. Launch the SSH client, such as Plink or PuTTY. Enter the IP address
and change the default TCP Port to connect to the port enabled (for
example, plink -ssh -P 2203 192.168.51.9).
See Direct Port Access (on page 46) for details.
Case 3. Using Exclusive Write Access via RSC
To ensure that you are the only user who has write access to a
serial target:
1. After logging in to SX via a web browser, "Port Access" tab is
selected by default.
2. Connect to a Port 4 by clicking on the hyperlink labeled "Port 4".
3. The Raritan Serial Console (RSC) application window launches with
Write Access enabled (icon indicated in green on status line at the
bottom of the window), unless the port has been occupied by another
user.
4. In the RSC window, choose Emulator > Get Write Lock (if some
other user has previously obtained Write Access, perform "Get Write
Access" first from the Emulator menu of RSC). The icon on the
status line will display Write Access (Lock) now, meaning now all
users can only view the port connection.
5. Log in to the device connected to the port and try interacting with the
device using the RSC panel. See Get Write Access for details.
6. To relinquish write lock in the RSC window, choose Emulator > Write
Unlock, and the icon on status line will display Write Access again,
meaning any other privileged users will re-gain Write Access now.
Case 4. Configuring LDAP
To configure SX to use LDAP/Active Directory
®
server for login
authentication:
1. After logging in to SX via a web browser, choose Setup > Remote
Authentication.
2. If the LDAP server has a backup server, enter the same parameters
(except the IP address) for the secondary LDAP server.
