Launch CCMS Desktop (SaaS deployment)

Users in a dedicated SaaS deployment should always use the preconfigured settings when launching CCMS Desktop for the first time.

For a dedicated SaaS deployment, you must sign in to the RDP server first, so that it automatically configures the user profile with all the required settings. Thereafter, you only need to enter your password and begin working. For more information, see: Connect for the first time to the RDP server (SaaS deployment).

  1. Inside the Remote Desktop Connection window, double-click the IXIA CCMS Desktop icon.
