Administrators and authorized users can access the command line through the consoles of the OnBoard appliance and of SPs, servers and other connected devices. Users of any type can log into a console using either the Web Manager, menus available through the OnBoard appliance’s console, or using the ssh command. The following table provides links to where console access is defined.
When a user connects to any console using the Web Manager, a window running a MindTerm applet appears with an encrypted SSH connection between the user’s workstation and the console. MindTerm is an SSH client that includes an integrated xterm/vt100 terminal emulator and runs as a Java applet within a browser window.
See MindTerm Applet Reference for details about use and configuration and about hotkeys that can be used during console sessions through the Web Manager.
