3.5Communications Software

You need to configure the access protocols that the communications software on the Administrator and User Computer will use when connecting to the Console Server (and when connecting to serial devices and network hosts which are attached to the Console Server).

This section provides an overview of the communications software tools that can be used on the remote computer. Tripp Lite recommends the SDT Connector software tool that is provided with the Console Server, however, generic tools such as PuTTY and SSHTerm may also be used.

3.5.1 SDT Connector

We recommend using the SDT Connector communications software for all communications with Console Servers. Each Console Server is supplied with an unlimited number of SDT Connector licenses to use with that Console Server.

SDT Connector is a lightweight tool that enables Users and Administrators to securely access the Console Server, and the various computers, network devices and appliances that may be serially or network- connected to the Console Server.

SDT Connector can be installed on Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista and on most Linux, UNIX and Solaris computers as detailed in Chapter 7.

3.5.2PuTTY

Communications packages like PuTTY can be also used to connect to the Console Server command line (and to connect to serially attached devices as covered in Chapter 4). PuTTY is a freeware implementation of Telnet and SSH for Win32 and UNIX platforms. It runs as an executable application without needing to be installed onto your system. PuTTY (the Telnet and SSH client itself) can be downloaded at http://www.tucows.com/preview/195286.html
