Permission to access a port or perform power management is granted by the administrator when
your user account is created.
Connect to the console server
When you click the Connect to ACS radio button on the Connect form, a Java applet viewer appears
running an SSH session on the console server. A Java applet displays when you connect to the
console server. The IP address of the console server is followed by the session type.
The following table describes the available buttons in the Java applet:
Connect to serial ports
The list of serial ports includes the port names or administrator-defined aliases only for ports you
have permission to access.
Port access requirements
When you connect to a serial port to access a server or another device, access rights to the specific
serial port on the console server is required.
NOTE: If an authentication server is setup in your network, an authentication method and the related parameters
should be setup to allow access to the connected devices.
When you select a port from the Serial pull-down list and click the Connect button, a Java applet
viewer appears. The Connected to message in a gray area at the top of the screen shows the IP
address of the console server followed by the TCP port number.
