Adding a Rubix Compute controller
Adding a controller is adding a physical device (as in a Rubix-compute) you will need the IP of the device and the username and password. If you know the IP of the controller to add, you can click the 'create' button and follow the wizard to add the device.
Alternatively, click the 'discover' tab to see the list of available Rubix Compute devices on the network.
Once you have found the IP of the controller you want to add:
Step 1: Enter name and IP of controller. If you don't have an existing token, leave the field blank and click the 'create' button. A token can be generated later in step 3.
Step 2: Ping the controller to ensure you have a connection to the device.
Step 3: If you already have been provided a token then you can paste it directly into field. Otherwise, click the 'generate token' button to log in and generate a token.
The default username and password is: admin / N00BWires
Click login to continue.
After a new token has now been generated, click the 'save token' button.
Click the 'refresh' icon and the newly created device should appear in the navigation tree. You should now be able to access the device (the 'rc' text should turn green).
Generating a new token and changing device passwords
Multiple tokens can be created if the owner wants different users to access the supervisor or device. This privilege can be revoked at any time to limit user access.
To view or to generate additional tokens, log into the device.

The following options will be available after logging in:
- Create a new user: click the + button to create a user for the device / supervisor
