Logging In to a FlexusL Instance Using VNC

Scenarios

This section describes how to use VNC provided on the console to log in to a FlexusL server.

If you cannot use the MSTSC or other remote login tools to log in to a cloud server, you can use the VNC login mode. This login mode is mainly used in emergency O&M scenarios for you to view and perform maintenance operations.
