The SMU supports SSH. After logging into the SMU, the SMU can redirect connections directly to the server CLI. This can be useful for two reasons:

  • It eliminates the need to assign a server administration IP address to the gigabit interface of the server.
  • It enhances the security of the server by isolating administrative access to the private management network.

To SSH into the server using the SMU as a proxy:

  1. Connect to the SMU through SSH.
  2. Log in to the SMU as manager.
  3. Select the targeted server from the list that is displayed.
    The SMU automatically initiates a connection to the server CLI.
  4. When prompted, enter the user name supervisor and the password for the “supervisor” user account.
