Hi,

Since the appliance is locked down you can't simply RDP into it. Check the link below which outlines how to enable RDP:

If you're using BE 2012, follow the link below to set this up:

Don't use Advanced Open File Option either when backing up Exchange.

Thanks!

Hello Backup.Admin,

After installing Exchange 2010 or higher Management Tools on a BE3600 appliance the BE3600 webpage (Ops Center) may not work. Installing Mgmt tools would also install IIS which takes over port 80 on the appliance by default which stops the Ops Center page from listening and responding to requests.

After install, you need to change the port binding manually to be able to resolve the issue.
