Introduction
Are you interested in a Dedicated Server or already have one, but don’t yet have a complete overview of its administration and where to find all the options you need? This can be a challenge, especially at first. Don’t worry—we’ll give you a detailed introduction to managing your service below so you can get the best possible overview.
After following this guide, you’ll be able to manage your Dedicated Server efficiently and find all the important options and features quickly and easily. Everything is managed through the tabs at the top of your Dedicated Server’s service page (/dedicated/<id>)—there is no longer a separate “Product Management”/“Settings”/“Tools” area, but a simple tab bar with all the features.

Dedicated Server
Overview
The Overview tab gives you a central overview of all the important information about your Dedicated Server. It displays the current status, server address, hostname, installed operating system, and system usage, including CPU and RAM usage. This overview helps you monitor and manage your Dedicated Server effectively.
ZapX AI Agent
In the ZapX AI Agent tab, you can use our AI-powered assistant to ask questions about your Dedicated Server or get help troubleshooting issues.
Remote Management
In the Remote Management tab, you manage time-limited access to your server hardware through iLO (HP servers) or IPMI (AMD Ryzen/Supermicro servers), all through the ZapX gateway. You can activate a session for a limited time, view temporary login credentials, and use them to open the remote console. For more details, see our iLO or IPMI guide.
Installation
The Installation tab contains everything related to installing and restoring your server’s operating system:
ISO installation and management: Mount or eject an ISO, choose from our catalog of standard images, or mount your own ISO using a URL. You can also boot from an ISO or hard drive once. For more details, see our Custom ISO guide.
Rescue & Wipe: Enable or disable the rescue system by selecting a rescue template, or use the “Run wipe” button to automatically start the preparatory wipe workflow after confirmation. For more details, see our Server Reset guide.
You’ll still perform the actual operating system installation manually through Remote Management.
Hardware
The Hardware tab shows all important hardware details in one place: firmware versions (system ROM, iLO/BMC, storage controller), real-time status for the CPU, RAM, network interfaces, and connected drives, as well as your current RAID configuration (RAID level, controller, volumes, drives) for display only. You’ll still need to change your RAID configuration directly on the server through the hardware controller (see our RAID configuration guide), not through a button in the panel.
Network
The Network tab shows all IP addresses assigned to your server, including IPv6 prefixes and the current network configuration. You can also edit the reverse DNS entry (PTR record) for your IP address, change your IP plan, or add extra IP addresses.
DNS
In the DNS tab, you can manage the DNS settings for your product.
Traffic Quota
The Traffic Quota tab lets you keep track of your monthly traffic usage. It shows how much of your included traffic you’ve already used. If you reach your limit before the end of the month, you can also reset your traffic allowance early for an additional fee.
Statistics
The Statistics tab displays detailed traffic data, both incoming and outgoing, as well as current temperature readings and fan speeds, so you can keep your hardware operating within a safe range at all times.
Activity
The Activity tab (formerly “Event Log”) lets you keep track of all admin tasks and system events in one place. Here you can see who made changes, when they were made, and what was affected.
DDoS Manager
The DDoS Manager tab shows past DDoS attacks on your server, helping you assess potential threats and patterns. You can also enable notifications for ongoing DDoS attacks. Depending on your server location and the DDoS protection available there, you can monitor active attacks in real time, including detailed traffic insights (legitimate traffic versus blocked traffic).
