Managing remote servers through the Serial Session Viewer About the Serial Session Viewer The built-in Serial Session Viewer is a telnet client that enables you to establish serial sessions with servers attached to serial console switches. You can tailor user preferences for all sessions, as well as session properties for each server. The Serial Session Viewer offers a scripting function for automatic server login and a logging function for saving session data to a file. When launching a Serial Session Viewer session to a serial console switch, HP IP Console Viewer can use either an SSH or plaintext (non-encrypted) session, depending on the settings of the serial console switch. The serial console switch can be set to support SSH sessions only, plaintext sessions only, or both types of sessions at the same time. When the serial console switch is set to support both types of sessions, the Encryption Method ("Choosing an encryption method" on page 152) dialog box appears. You can then choose a session type and optionally save your choice for use in future Serial Session Viewer sessions. SSH settings are configured in the Manage Console Switch window. For more information, see "Viewing and configuring SSH parameters for serial console switches (on page 107)." Serial Session Viewer window After you have connected to a server, the server command prompt appears in a separate window called the Serial Session Viewer.
