The VNC Interface
There are three ways to communicate with the SVxx53DXI unit in order to control the
host computer:
• Web interface: The integrated Web server includes a Java-based VNC
client. This allows easy browser-based remote control.
• Cleartext VNC: There are several third-party software programs that
use the standard VNC protocol, available in open source and
commercial VNC clients. By pointing any VNC client at the default
VNC port (5900) on SVxx53DXI, you will be able to control the
attached systems. This method offers a fast and direct way to access
the system and allows the use of “native” VNC clients and other remote
management packages which implement the VNC protocol.
• SSH access: By default, there is a standard SSH server running on
port 22 (the standard SSH port). Once connected via SSH, VNC traffic
may be tunneled to port 5900 on localhost (ie. 127.0.0.1:5900) of the
SVXX53DXI.
• Any VNC client may be used to access most features. Encryption does
not affect VNC operation, aside from a slight reduction in speed.
