MRS allows you to access MRS clusters using Direct Connect. Direct Connect is a high-speed, low-latency, stable, and secure dedicated network connection that connects your local data center to an online cloud VPC. It extends online cloud services and existing IT facilities to build a flexible, scalable hybrid cloud computing environment.

Prerequisites

Direct Connect is available, and the connection between the local data center and the online VPC has been established.

Accessing an MRS Cluster Using Direct Connect

Log in to the MRS console.
Click the name of the cluster to enter its details page.
On the Dashboard tab page of the cluster details page, click Access Manager next to MRS Manager.
Set Access Mode to Direct Connect and select I confirm that the network between the local PC and the floating IP address is connected and that MRS Manager is accessible using the Direct Connect connection.

The floating IP address is automatically allocated by MRS to access MRS Manager. Before using Direct Connect to access MRS Manager, ensure that the connection between the local data center and the online VPC has been established.
Click OK. The MRS Manager login page is displayed. Enter the username admin and the password set during cluster creation.
