About Interfaces

In CC-SG, nodes are accessed through interfaces. You must add at least one interface to each new node. You can add different types of interfaces to provide different kinds of access, such as Out-of-Band KVM or serial, power control, In-Band SSH/RSA/VNC, DRAC/RSA/ILO, web, or Telnet access, depending on the node type.

A node can have multiple interfaces, but only one out-of-band serial or KVM interface. For example, a Windows Server may have an out-of-band KVM interface for the keyboard, mouse, and monitor ports, and a power interface to manage the outlet to which the server is connected.

Some interfaces only work in Direct mode even though you configure CC-SG to use Proxy mode. These interfaces include ILO, RSA, Microsoft RDP, DRAC, Web Browser and VMware Viewer. Java RDP interfaces can be used in proxy mode. See About Connection Modes.
