Step 1 Choose Devices > Manage Devices.
Step 2 Use one of these methods:
• Add a device record. To do this, click the Add button. The Add Device page appears.
• Search for a device record. To do this,
a. Specify a Search Type and enter values for the screen components that are unique to the search type
that you select.
A list of devices appears.
b. Click the Identifier link corresponding to the desired device.
The Modify Device page appears.
Step 3 From the Property Name drop-down list, select the /IPDevice/connectionRequestPort and
/IPDevice/connectionRequestPath properties, and enter appropriate values in the Property Value field.
Note The API constants for /IPDevice/connectionRequestPort and /IPDevice/connectionRequestPath
are
IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_PORT and IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_PATH,
respectively.
Step 4 Click Add.
You can specify the port and path properties anywhere in the property hierarchy.
Note Because the Use FQDN method relies on the DNS being updated with the device's correct IP address,
you do not need to update Cisco BAC whenever the device IP address changes. Subsequently, this option
is the most scalable one for connection requests.
Use IP Connection Request
The Use IP method discovers the device's WAN IP address by using the same mechanism as the
Discovered method. Then, it constructs a connection request URL for the device by using the values in
the following API properties:
• IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_PORT
• IPDeviceKeys.CONNECTION_REQUEST_PATH
