  o Edit /etc/sysconfig/vncservers 
 o Enable the service with chkconfig vncserver on 
  o Start the service with service vncserver start

6.10 SDT IP Connection to Hosts
Network (IP) protocols like RDP, VNC and HTTP can also be used to connect to host devices that are serially connect\
ed through 
their COM port to the Console Server. To do this you must:
•  establish a PPP connection (Section 6.7.1) between the host and the ga\
teway, then 
•  set up Secure Tunneling - Ports on the Console Server (Section 6.7.2), then
• configure SDT Connector to use the appropriate network protocol to...

•  Specify which Users will be allowed to use this connection. This should \
be the same Users who were given Remote 
Desktop access privileges in the earlier step. Click Next
•  On the Network Connection screen, select TCP/IP and click Properties
 
• Select Specify TCP/IP addresses on the Incoming TCP/IP Properties screen. Nominate a From: and a To: TCP/IP 
address and click Next

Note: You can choose any TCP/IP addresses as long as they are addresses which are not used anywher\
e else on your network. 
The From: address will be assigned to the Windows XP/2003 computer and the To : address will be used by the Console 
Server. For simplicity, use the IP address as shown in the illustration above:
 From: 169.134.13.1
 To: 169.134.13.2
Alternately you can set the advanced connection and access on the Windows computer to use the...

6.11 SSH Tunneling using other SSH clients (e.g. PuTTY) 
As covered in the previous sections of this chapter we recommend you use\
 the SDT Connector client software that is supplied 
with the Console Server. However there’s also a wide selection of commercial and free SSH client programs that can also 
provide the secure SSH connections to the Console Servers and secure tunnels to connected de\
vices: 
• PuTTY is a complete (though not very user...

 o If your destination computer is serially connected to the Console Server\
, set the Destination as :3389 e.g. if the Label you specified on the serial port on the \
Console Server is win2k3, then specify the  
   remote host as win2k3:3389 . Alternative you can set the Destination as \
portXX:3389 where XX is the SDT  
   enabled serial port number e.g. if port 4 is on the Console Server is to\
 carry the RDP traffic then specify   
  port04:3389...

 o If you are connecting as a User in the “users” group then you can \
only SSH tunnel to Hosts and Serial Ports  
    where you have specific access permissions 
 o If you are connecting as an Administrator (in the “admin” group)\
 then you can connect to any configured Host or  
    Serial Ports (which has SDT enabled)
To set up the secure SSH tunnel for a HTTP browser connection to the Managed Device specify port 80 (rather tha\

Chapter 7: Alerts, Automated Response and Logging
This chapter describes the automated response, alert generation and logg\
ing features of the Console Server. 
The new Auto-Response facility (in firmware V3.5.1 and later) extend\
s on the basic Alert facility available in earlier firmware 
revisions. With the new facility the Console Server monitors selected serial ports, \
logins, the power status and environmental 
monitors and probes for Check Condition triggers. The console server wil\
l then...
