Diagnostic Console

The Diagnostic Console is a non-graphical, menu-based interface that provides local access to CC-SG. You can access Diagnostic Console from a serial or KVM port. See Access Diagnostic Console via VGA/Keyboard/Mouse Port. Or, you can access Diagnostic Console from a Secure Shell (SSH) client, such as PuTTY or OpenSSH Client. See Access Diagnostic Console via SSH.

Diagnostic Console includes two interfaces:

  1. Status Console: See About Status Console.
  2. Administrator Console. See About Administrator Console.

Note: When you access Diagnostic Console via SSH, the Status Console and the Administrator Console inherit the appearance settings of your SSH client and keyboard bindings. These appearance settings may differ from those in this documentation.

If you use PuTTY 0.63, change the default client encoding to ISO-8859-1. CC-SG shell cannot display correctly in UTF-8 encoding. To change encoding, choose Window > Translation > Remote character set.
