Accessing a Virtual Console Server

3 via the Web Manager

Once you’ve connected your ACS v6000 virtual console server to a network, you can access the virtual console server via the web manager. The web manager provides direct access to the virtual console server via a graphical user interface instead of a command-based interface.

NOTE: For instructions on accessing the virtual console server via the CLI or DSView 3 software see the Avocent ACS v6000 Command Reference Guide or the DSView 3 Installer/User Guide.

Web Manager Overview for Administrators

NOTE: For an overview of the web manager for regular users, see Web Manager Overview for Regular Users on page 49.

To log into the web manager:

1.Open a web browser and enter the virtual console server IP address in the address field.

2.Log in as either admin with the password avocent or as root with the password linux.

Figure 3.1 shows a typical web manager screen for an administrator and descriptions follow in Table 3.1.
