Reference

Start

Prepare the information about the hosts or databases to be managed by a bastion host.

-

Manage host or database resources.

Add the information about the prepared hosts or databases to the bastion host for centralized management.

You can select any of the following methods to add the information:

Create resource accounts.

Create login accounts for managed host or database resources.

A resource account uniquely identifies a host or database resource managed in a bastion host. You need to create a resource account for each managed host or database resource and associate the resource with the account. O&M personnel can use the account to log in to the host or database resource for O&M operations.

Creating a Resource Account and Associating It with the Corresponding Resource

Authorize O&M.

You can configure access control policies and associate the policies with users and resource accounts to control O&M personnel, O&M resources, and O&M operations.

Creating an ACL Rule and Associating It with Users and Resource Accounts

End

Send the user account and bastion host login information to O&M personnel. O&M personnel log in to managed host or database resources in a way based on the host or database protocol type.
