Server User Manual

To establish the VNC connection, first configure the VNC Viewer, entering the VNC Server IP
address.
A. When the Viewer PC is connected to the console server thru 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 PC is connected directly to the console server (i.e. locally or remotely through a
VPN or dial in connection); and the VNC Host computer is serially connected to the console server;
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 thru to port 5900 on the PPP connection on serial Port
xx). For a Windows Viewer PC using UltraVNC connecting to a VNC Server attached to Port 1 on a
console server, it is located at 192.168.0.1
To establish the VNC connection, simply activate the VNC Viewer software on the Viewer PC and
enter the password.
