Note
The SDT Connector client can be configured with an unlimited number of Gateways. Each
Gateway can be configured to port forward to an unlimited number of locally networked Hosts.
Similarly there is no limit on the number of SDT Connector clients who can be configured to
access the one Gateway. There are also no limits on the number of Host connections that an
SDT Connector client can concurrently have open through the one Gateway tunnel.
However, there is a limit on the number of SDT Connector SSH tunnels that can be open at one
time on a particular Gateway. The B096-016 / B096-048 Console Server Management Switch
and B092-016 Console Server with PowerAlert each support at least 50 such concurrent
connections. So for a site with a B096-016 gateway you can have, at any time, up to 50 users
securely controlling an unlimited number of network attached computers, power devices and
other appliances (routers, etc) at that site.
6.2.5 Manually adding hosts to the SDT Connector gateway
For each gateway, you can manually specify the network connected hosts that will be accessed through
that Console Server; and for each host, specify the services that will used in communicating with the
host
Select the newly added gateway and click the Host icon
to create a host that will be
accessible via this gateway. (Alternatively select File: New Host)
Enter the IP or DNS Host Address of the host (if this is a DNS address, it must be resolvable by
the gateway)
Select which Services are to be used when accessing the new host. A range of service options
are pre-configured in the default SDT Connector client (RDP, VNC, HTTP, HTTPS, Dell RAC,
VMWare etc). However if you wish to add new services to the range then proceed to the next
section (Adding a new service) then return here
Optionally, you can enter a Descriptive Name for the host to be displayed instead of the IP or
DNS address, as well as any Notes or a Description of this host (such as its operating
system/release, or anything special about its configuration)
