To operate
SDT Connector,
add the new gateways to the client software by entering the access details
for each Console Server (refer to
Section 6.2.2
). Then let the client auto-configure with all host and serial
port connections from each Console Server (refer
Section 6.2.3
). Now point-and-click to connect to the
Hosts and serial devices (refer to
Section 6.2.4
)
Alternately you can manually add network connected hosts (refer
Section 6.2.5
) as well as manually
configure new services to be used when accessing the Console Server and the hosts (refer
Section 6.2.6
).
Manually configure clients to run on the computer that will use the service to connect to the hosts and
serial port devices (refer to
Section 6.2.7 and 6.2.9
).
SDT Connector
can also be set up to make an out-of-
band connection to the Console Server (refer to
Section 6.2.9
)
6.2.2
Configuring a new gateway in the SDT Connector client
To create a secure SSH tunnel to a new Console Server:
Click the
New Gateway
icon or select the
File: New Gateway
menu option
Enter the IP or DNS
Address
of the Console Server and the SSH port that will be used (typically
22)
Note
If
SDT Connector
is connecting to a remote Console Server through the public Internet or routed
network, you will need to:
Determine
the public IP address
of the Console Server (or of the router/ firewall that connects
the Console Server to the Internet) as assigned by the ISP. One way to find the public IP
address is to access http://checkip.dyndns.org/ or http://www.whatismyip.com/ from a
computer on the same network as the Console Server and note the reported IP address
Set port forwarding for TCP port 22 through any firewall/NAT/router that is located between
SDT Connector
and the Console Server so that it points to the Console Server.
http://www.portforward.com has port forwarding instructions for a range of routers. Also you
can use the Open Port Check tool from http://www.canyouseeme.org to check if port
forwarding through local firewall/NAT/router devices has been properly configured
Enter the
Username
and
Password
of a user on the gateway that has been enabled to connect
via SSH and/or create SSH port redirections
