Connecting to a VDS Server

KVM

1. Connection via Virtual Console

The virtual console is similar to a terminal connected directly to the server. It is available in the VDS control panel under Console (Консоль).



2. Remote Access (SSH)

You can connect via SSH using a program like PuTTY.

Connection credentials are sent to your contact email after activation. If you lost the email, reset the root password in the control panel.

Hyper-V

1. Connection via Virtual Console

The virtual console acts like a terminal connected to the server. To access it, connect using an RDP client to the server specified in the RDP Access.Server (Доступ по RDP.Сервер) field in the Management (Управление) section. Example server: rds-vds.nic.ru



The username is shown in the User (Пользователь) field (e.g., VPS\vm-user-29623).

The username is generated automatically and cannot be changed. It consists of:
domain name: VPS
unique identifier: vm-user-29623

On Windows Server 2012, direct RDP access is configured automatically. Connection credentials are sent via email after activation. If you lost the email, reset the root password in the control panel.

Recommended RDP Clients:
• Windows (XP–10) — Remote Desktop Connection (built-in)
• macOS — Microsoft Remote Desktop
• Linux — FreeRDP or Remmina
• iOS — Microsoft Remote Desktop
• Android — Microsoft Remote Desktop

The virtual console is intended for technical access. For full remote desktop use, configure direct RDP access to the server as per the guide.

ispmanager

You can access the ispmanager control panel at: https://IP_address:1500/ispmgr

Login credentials for ispmanager and SSH are sent to your contact email after activation. If you lost the email, use the root user to log in.
