  • Enter a password for your retrospect client. This password will only be used temporary. It is used to initiate the initial connection between your computer and the Retrospect server. We will then change this password to a long complicated password. DO NOT give us your NetID password, AD Password, IGB password.

  • Your computer's current IP address is: Template:USERIP.
  • Please make sure to open up your firewall ports:
    • Open Windows XP's Firewall Settings

        • Port: 497
        • Select TCP
      • 2. Description: Retrospect Client (UDP)
        • Port: 497
        • Select UDP

Your computer's current IP address is: Template:USERIP.


Your IGB IP address should be one of these 128.174.124.* , 128.174.125.* or 128.174.126.* where * is a number between 1-255
