SPAccess Session Types

When a user initiates an SP Access session, the appliance will open a small TCP port range to

facilitate communication between the client and the SP. The client PC will open a pop-up browser

the session type being launched is a SP Access Browser session, the appliance will FWD the traffic

from the client pop-up window to the Service Processor and the user will be presented with the

If the session being launched is an SP Access Browser (auto login) session, the appliance will

utilize the stored service credentials and will log into the browser UI of the SP before forwarding the

client browser to the signed-in UI session of the SP.

If the session type being launched is an SP Access vKVM/vMedia session, the appliance will follow

all of the same steps included with the SP Access Browser (auto login) session with the addition of

launching the Java vKVM viewer of the SP and passing the session back to the client PC.

To start a session, click a button for the session type you want. If a user doesn't have permission to

launch a particular session type, or if the SPdoes not support the session type, then the

corresponding button for that session type is grayed out.

There are two ways to access the Sessions page. From the Targets tab, you can click Appliance,
