It enhances the security of server by isolating administrative access to the private
management network.
To SSH into the Titan, using the SMU as a proxy, do the following:
1.
Connect to the SMU through SSH.
2.
Log into the SMU as
manager
.
3.
A list of servers will appear. Select the target server.
4.
A connection to Titan’s Command Line Interface will be automatically initiated.
To connect using SSH or Telnet
When connecting to a Titan SiliconServer through SSH or Telnet, use the server’s
administration name or IP address, and log in using the
supervisor
user account. Titan must be
configured to accept SSH or Telnet connections over its Ethernet interfaces.
Titan’s SSH implementation grants full access to the CLI. Connections can be made using DSS
or RSA host key types.
To SSH into the Titan, run the following:
1.
Connect to the server’s administrative name or IP address:
ssh supervisor@titan_name_or_IP
2.
When prompted, enter the
supervisor
user’s password.
To Telnet into the Titan, run the following:
1.
Connect to the server’s administrative name or IP address:
telnet titan_name_or_IP
2.
When prompted, enter the
supervisor
user’s password.
To Connect using SiliconServer Control
SSC can be used to connect to Titan from the SMU, from Windows PCs, and from Linux/Unix
workstations. SSC provides a secure connection using a modified version of the Arcfour cipher
for encryption and Sha-1 for authentication. SSC comes in two varieties:
•
SSC for Windows and Linux.
•
PSSC, a Perl scripted version of SSC for Linux/Unix operating systems.
SSC is a utility for accessing the Titan’s command line interface and is optimally used for
scripting. Titan supports SSC access to its CLI through any administrative IP address. By
default an administrative IP address is available on the private management network.
The syntax for SSC is:
ssc [–u <username>] [-p <password>] <host>[:<port>] [<command>]
The syntax for PSSC is:
