Launching Virtual Console and Virtual Media Remotely

You can launch Virtual Console/Virtual Media by entering a single URL on a supported browser instead of launching it from the iDRAC6 Web GUI. Depending on your system configuration, you will either go through the manual authentication process (login page) or will be directed to the Virtual Console/Virtual Media viewer automatically.

NOTE: Internet Explorer supports Local, Active Directory (AD), Smart Card (SC) and Single Sign-On (SSO) logins. Firefox supports only Local, AD, and SSO logins on Windows-based operating system. It does not support SC login.

URL Format

If you enter the link<IP>/console in the browser, you may be required to go through the normal manual login procedure depending on the login configuration. If SSO is not enabled and Local, AD, or SC login is enabled, the corresponding login page is displayed. If the login is successful, the Virtual Console/Virtual Media view is not launched. Instead, you are redirected to the iDRAC6 GUI home page.
