Overview

A bastion host can manage hosts, applications, cloud servers (container resources), and databases. This topic walks you through how to manage hosts, databases, and applications.

A bastion host can manage the following types of hosts, databases, and applications:

  • Host resources of the client-server architecture, including hosts configured with the Secure Shell (SSH), Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Virtual Network Computing (VNC), Telnet, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), DB2, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, Secure Copy Protocol (SCP), or Rlogin protocol.
  • Application resources of the browser-server architecture or the client-server architecture, including more than 12 types of browser- and client-server architecture Windows applications, such as Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Oracle tools.
