• Telnet

A standard Telnet client can be used to access most of the Intel

RMM2’s functionality,

including a text-mode console redirection. When connected using Telnet, the following

commands are supported: help, quit, version, terminal, and clp.

• SSH

A Secure Shell (SSH) client can also be used to access the Intel

RMM2.

5.3 Browsers

In order to access the remote host system using a securely encrypted connection, you will need a

browser that supports the HTTPS protocol. Strong security is only assured by using a key length

of 128 Bit. Some older browsers may not have a strong 128 Bit encryption algorithm.

If you are using Windows Internet Explorer*, you can verify strong encryption by opening the

“Help / About” menu to read about the key length that is currently activated. The figure below

shows the dialog box presented by Internet Explorer 6.0.

In order to use the Remote Console (KVM) window of your managed server, Java Runtime

Environment (JRE) version 1.4 or higher must be installed. If the browser has no Java support

(such as on a small handheld device), you are still able to maintain your remote host system

using the administration forms displayed by the browser itself.

5.4 Navigation

After the successful login to the Intel

RMM2, the main page of the Intel

RMM2 appears (see

Figure 26). This web page consists of three parts; each of them contains specific information. The

buttons on the top allow you to navigate within the home web page, KVM, and logout screens.

See the figure below for details. The lower left frame contains a navigation bar and allows you to

switch between the different sections of the Intel

RMM2. Within the right frame, task-specific

information is displayed that depends on the section you have chosen before.
