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.
