Network Hosts

To access a locally networked computer or appliance (referred to as a
Host) you must identify the network connected Host, then specify the TCP
or UDP ports/services that will be used to control that Host.
Selecting

Serial & Network: Network Hosts presents all of the network

connected Hosts that have been enabled for access, as well as the
related access TCP ports/services.

Click

Add Host to enable access to a new Host (or select Edit to up

date the settings for existing Host)

Enter the

IP Address or DNS Name of the new network connected

Host (and optionally enter a Description)

Add or edit the Permitted Services (or TCP/UDP port numbers) that


are authorized to be used in controlling this host. Only these permitted
services will be forwarded through by MetaConnect to the Host. All
other services (TCP/UDP ports) will be blocked.

Optional:

Select

Nagios Enabled if the service on the Host is to be

monitored using the ECS0016 distributed Nagios monitoring.

The

Logging Level specifies the level of information to be logged and

monitored for each Host access.

If the Host is a networked server with IPMI power control, then the


Administrator can enable users (Users and Administrators) to remotely
cycle power and reboot.
Click

Apply once the desired changes have been made.
