Charon Manager on Microsoft Windows

The Charon-SSP Manager GUI is almost identical on Windows. However, there are some small differences:

  • The serial console access on Windows is implemented via PuTTY. Hence, the icon bar at the top of the Charon-SSP Manager screen contains an additional terminal symbol for the serial console.
  • The Virtual Machine menu contains a settings option for PuTTY instead of Console Options. Please note that the PuTTY connection is not tunneled through the Charon Manager SSH tunnel (unlike the Linux built-in console version). Therefore, either the firewall or security group of the target system must be adapted to the required ports or a VPN connection (strongly recommended if traffic runs over a public network) must be used.
  • Xserver management is not integrated with the Charon-SSP Manager on Windows. Hence, the menu option X11 Server is not available in the Tools menu. Instead it includes a VNC server option.
