How to Connect to VPN and DRAC for Dedicated Servers
Note: We use a VPN to secure access to the DRAC for a dedicated server. The VPN logins are the same email address and password that you use to access your Client Area.
Older servers (M610 / R710 or older) use a console plug-in which requires a specific legacy Java version (Java 7 "7u79"). If the console can't be changed to use HTML5, you will need to install this specific Java version from the Oracle website to use the console.

Using the DRAC interface
You should now be connected, and will be able to access any of the server's DRAC IPs. When the server was provisioned you would have received an email with your DRAC IP and logins. If you need these resent, submit a support ticket and our team can do this for you. Once logged in, you can perform management tasks such as accessing the server console and rebooting the server.
To access the server Console, navigate to Properties then select Launch under Virtual Console Preview.
To reboot the server, navigate to Power Management, click on Reset System (warm boot), then select Apply.
