Remote Console Options
The HP NetServers E Series incorporate remote access capabilities. Using
pcANYWHERE32 (included on the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM) or
terminal emulation software of your own choosing, you can access your
NetServer from a remote site. Remote access is particularly useful for network
administrators, VARs, support technicians, and other maintenance personnel
who can evaluate, maintain and, if necessary, reconfigure a NetServer remotely.
The HP NetServer E 40 and E 45 offers a range of remote control capabilities.
With a modem connection at one of the NetServer's serial ports, personnel at a
distant workstation or terminal can control server functions (including the boot
process), run diagnostic utilities, and perform NOS-level configuration
procedures.
Support Anywhere includes three distinct methods you can use to control an HP
NetServer remotely. These are:
•
HP's Console Redirection (E 40 and E 45 only)
•
Graphics Console Redirection (Windows NT)
•
RCONSOLE (Novell NetWare)
In addition to HP's hardware-level Console Redirection (E 40 and E 45 only), two
NOS-specific methods of redirecting NetServer operations are supported and
documented for use with a NetServer E Series system:
