A. When the Viewer computer is connected to the Console Server through an SSH tunnel (over the

public Internet, or a dial-in connection, or private network connection), enter localhost (or
127.0.0.1) as the IP VNC Server IP address and the source port you entered when setting SSH
tunneling/port forwarding (in Section 6.2.6) e.g. :1234

B. When the Viewer computer is connected directly to the Console Server (either locally or remotely

through a VPN or dial-in connection) and the VNC Host computer is serially connected to the
Console Server, then enter the IP address of the Console Server unit with the TCP port that the SDT
tunnel will use. The TCP port will be 7900 plus the physical serial port number (i.e. 7901 to 7948, so
all traffic directed to port 79xx on the Console Server is tunneled through to port 5900 on the PPP
connection on serial Port xx). For example, for a Windows Viewer computer using UltraVNC
connecting to a VNC Server which is attached to Port 1 on a Console Server, enter 192.168.0.1

You can then establish the VNC connection by simply activating the VNC Viewer software on the
Viewer computer and entering the password
