23 Accessing Remote Desktop using VNC on Dell PowerEdge Servers and MX7000 Modular Infrastructure
5 Connecting Android with bVNC
The bVNC client supports secure VNC connectivity with iDRAC including VNC over SSH, and VNC over TLS.
Both free- and donation-supported versions of the bVNC client are available from the Google PlayStore.
Dell OpenManage Mobile (OMM) is an application for provisioning, troubleshooting, and monitoring Dell
servers. When bVNC is installed, OMM can read and configure iDRAC VNC settings, and launch bVNC with
parameters to directly connect to the iDRAC VNC server. On the 14G servers equipped with the Quick Sync
2 module, OMM can activate Quick Sync Wi-Fi and start a wireless VNC session. It is recommended that you
use OMM to launch bVNC when connecting to the PowerEdge servers. For resources with more information
about OMM, see Technical support and resources.
