Operating iRMC S2/S3 via Telnet / SSH (Remote Manager)

7.17Operating iRMC S2/S3 via Telnet / SSH (Remote Manager)

A Telnet / SSH-based interface is available for the iRMC S2/S3. This is known as the Remote Manager. The alphanumeric user interface of the Remote Manager provides you with access to system and sensor information, power management functions and the error event log. You can also start text console redirection and a SMASH CLP shell.

You can call the Remote Manager from the iRMC S2/S3 web interface as follows:

Use the iRMC S2/S3 SSH Access link to initiate an SSH (Secure Shell) encrypted Telnet connection to the iRMC S2/S3.

Use the iRMC S2/S3 Telnet Access link to initiate an unencrypted Telnet connection to the iRMC S2/S3.

Calling the Remote Manager from the iRMC S2/S3 web interface automatically starts a Java applet, which implements a Telnet / SSH client. Telnet / SSH access to Remote Manager using the Java applet is provided for convenience (e.g. no SSH client is supplied together with Windows operating systems). However, to access the Remote Manager, you can use any Telnet or SSH Client.

IIf you establish an SSH connection using the Java applet, public key authentication is not supported.

IMaximum number of parallel sessions:

Telnet: up to 4

SSH: up to 4

Telnet and SSH in total: up to 4

Operation of the iRMC S2/S3 using the Remote Manager is described in chapter "iRMC S2/S3 via Telnet/SSH (Remote Manager)" on page 321.

Requirements on the managed server

Access via Telnet must be activated for the iRMC S2/S3 (see the section "Ports and Network Services - Configuring ports and network services" on page 245).

IAccess via the Telnet protocol is deactivated by default for security reasons, as passwords are transmitted in plain text.
