Add Console Servers to Nodegrid Manually via WebUI

To manually add console servers:

1. Select Managed Devices :: Devices, click the Add button to add a device to the system. For this example, provide the following information
2. On the Name field, type the name of the console server device you want to add.
3. Enter the IP address of the console server. Make sure the IP address is reachable by NodeGrid Manager.
4. From the Type drop-down list, select one of the console server options
5. Enter the username and password of the admin user account of the console server, or select the Ask During Login option if you want to provide the admin credentials during the login time, and then click the Save
6. Select Appliance from the End Point radio button to allow access to the console server unit.
7. Save the changes.
8. (Optionally) Add individual serial ports of that console server for direct access to the serial target.
   For that, repeat the steps above, but for End Point select Serial Port and enter the port number. Repeat it for any other serial port you may want to add. If you want to add the console server serial ports automatically, you will need to create a Discovery Rule in Managed Devices :: Auto Discovery :: Discovery Rules page.

The console server device and the serial ports (manually added or automatically discovered) now appear under the Access page and should be ready for access. 

You can further configure the console server in Managed Devices :: Devices to enable secure tunneling, monitoring, automation scripts, data and event logging, alerting, and custom fields
