The first mode is the primary means for users and administrators to connect to CC-SG. The other
two modes are less frequently used. These modes require the following networking configuration:

PC Clients to Nodes

Another significant role of CC-SG is to connect PC clients to various targets (or nodes). These
targets can be serial or KVM console connections to Raritan devices (called Out-of-Band
connections). Another mode is to use In-Band access (IBA) methods, for example, Virtual
Network Computer (VNC), Windows Remote Desktop (RDP), or Secure Shell (SSH).


Another facet of PC client to target communication is whether:
• The PC client connects directly to the target (either via a Raritan device or In-Band access),

which is called Direct Mode.

• Or, if the PC client connects to the target through CC-SG, which acts as an application

firewall and is called Proxy Mode.

CC-SG & Client for IPMI, iLO/RILOE, DRAC, RSA

Another significant role of CC-SG is to manage third-party devices, such as iLO/RILOE, Hewlett
Packard’s Integrated Lights Out/Remote Insight Lights Out servers. Targets of an iLO/RILOE
device are powered on/off and recycled directly. Intelligent Platform Management Interface
(IPMI) servers can also be controlled by CC-SG. Dell DRAC and RSA targets can also be
managed by CC-SG.
