devices automatically found on the network or show only devices for which profiles exist.

Creating New Profiles
Connection profiles store important information about your Raritan device such as IP Address, custom TCP ports,
preferred compression settings, and custom security keys.
Note:
If your Raritan device is configured to use a custom TCP port (see Chapter 4:
Administrative Functions, Network Configuration), or a group security key (see Chapter 4:
Administrative Functions, Security Settings), you must first create a connection profile in order
to access the device.
To Create a Connection Profile:
1. Select Connection → New Profile from the Menu Bar, or click on the leftmost icon in the Toolbar. The
Connection Profile dialog box will appear, displaying all connection profiles which currently exist.
