Initial Administrative Verification
To verify that an attached server can be viewed and controlled through the Paragon system:
1. When you first power on the Paragon Main Unit, an attached user station, and the user
station’s attached monitor; the Login screen appears. Type admin in the User Name field
and press Enter. Type raritan (all lowercase) in the Password field and press Enter.
Note: The factory-default user names for regular users are user01 through up to user15
(depending on the model of your Main Unit), and for the administrator is admin. User names
are not case-sensitive. By default, a password is required only for the admin user, and that
password is raritan. Note that passwords are case-sensitive.
