A cloud computing platform provides a service that enables the user to access and control their bare metal machine via an out-of-band channel. The user invokes this service by connecting to a session server in a data center in the computing platform. The session server connects to the correct bare metal machine for the authenticated user. It provides the user with a persistent, virtualized session to the serial port of the user's bare metal machine. The solution may be implemented with use of a terminal server that multiplexes a local area network connection from the session server to the serial ports of each bare metal machine. Via this link, the device provides the user with the aforementioned access and control services, enabling the user to configure their bare metal machine even if it is inaccessible through network ports.
In a multi-tenant cloud computing platform, a method performed to provide users with out of band access to bare metal machines, the method comprising:
A system, comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing code for execution on at least one hardware processor, the code including code causing at least one computer to, when executed perform steps comprising:
