Direct Port Access
This approach provides a quick and direct method of connecting to the console port in order to access unit
programmability or the console of the target device directly. There are two ways to access the target device console
directly by giving the appropriate URL.
URL with Password and Username and Port
1. Type the following URL into the browser's location bar:
https://<IPAddress>/dpa.htm?username="username"?password="password"?port="portnumber”
−
IPAddress : This is the IP Address of the unit – either the actual IP address of the unit or IPAddress
assigned for a modem
−
“ username ”: Login name
−
“ password ”: Password
−
“ portnumber ”: Port number for which a console is required
Example:
https://192.168.50.81/dpa.htm?username="raritan1"?password="rar123"?port="1”
2. The Direct Port Access display will appear.
3. When the security warning appears (only once for the session); click on the [
Yes ] button.
4. The console display will appear.
Note : The user’s password will appear in the URL location bar.

Important! This kind of access will generally be used in applications where the user name and password
is retrieved from a database. It is not advisable to place this URL in a HTML page where the user name
and password are visible.
