# Can't reach this page Last updated: July 24, 2026 ## Problem You may encounter the "Server Not Reachable" error due to various reasons preventing access to the MDM server. ![Browser showing the Server Not Reachable error when the MDM server cannot be accessed](https://cdn.manageengine.com/mobile-device-management/images/cantreachthispage.png) ## Cause The error can be caused by one or more of the following issues: - **Server Stopped:** The server may have been stopped or turned off. - **IP Address Change:** The server has been configured with a new IP address. - **Server Migration:** The server has been migrated to a different location or setup. - **Computer Shutdown:** The computer on which the server is installed has been shutdown. - **Firewall Ports Blocked:** Ports required for server communication are blocked by the server’s firewall. ## Resolution 1. **Verify Server Route:** - Open the command prompt. - Type tracert followed by the server's IP address. For example: tracert `101.104.12.104`. - The TRACERT diagnostic utility determines the route taken to a destination by sending ICMP echo packets with varying TTL values. - The command can help identify where a packet stopped on the network. - Example: ```text C:\>tracert 22.110.0.1 Tracing route to 22.110.0.1 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 157.54.48.1 reports: Destination net unreachable. Trace complete. ``` 2. **Ping the Server:** - Ping the server IP (ip) using a browser to check if it connects. - Type the server IP and port in the browser's address bar. For example: `http://101.104.12.104:8080`. - Observe any errors thrown by the browser, which can provide clues to the connection issue. 3. **Check Firewall Ports:** - If you still cannot reach the server, verify the port numbers that need to be open on the server's firewall. - Ensure that the necessary ports for MDM server communication are not blocked.
