Introduction

The console displays your server's screen directly in your browser and forwards keyboard and mouse input to the server—as if you were sitting right in front of it. This lets you access your server even when SSH or RDP isn't working yet, for example during boot, if the network is misconfigured, or while installing from an ISO.
