Thin Client (B092-016); Local Client Service Connections - Tripp Lite B092-016 Owner's Manual

Chapter 16: Thin Client
The B092-016 has a selection of management clients (Firefox browser, SSH, Telnet, VNC viewer, ICA, RDP) embedded as well
as the Tripp Lite PowerAlert software. With these, the B092-016 provides rackside control of computers, networking, telecom,
power and other managed devices via serial, USB or IP over the LAN.
This chapter provides instructions on configuring the thin clients and using them locally and remotely. The thin clients can be
controlled from the rack side using a direct monitor/keyboard/mouse connected to the B092-016 or remotely using a VNC
connection from the remote user to the B092-016.

16.1 Local Client Service Connections

These client connections first need to be configured:
• Select Connect: Add/Delete/Edit on the control panel
• Then select a Connect client (such as RDP) and click Add to configure the Host connection for that client service
• For each new Host you add, you will be asked to enter a Label (enter a descriptive name) and a Hostname (enter the IP
Address or DNS Name of the new network connected Host) and possibly a Username (enter the name you will use to
log in to the Host)
• Once a Host has been added, you can select Edit and update the commands that will be executed in connecting the
service to the existing Host
