Episode 48 — Remote Server Installations — Access Methods and Considerations
This episode explores how to install server operating systems remotely, using methods such as PXE boot, remote media mounting via IPMI or iLO, and cloud-based deployment tools. We cover the preparation steps, including network configuration, remote access permissions, and ensuring proper authentication and encryption for secure installation. Benefits such as reduced on-site requirements and faster deployment across distributed locations are discussed alongside potential challenges.
We also provide practical troubleshooting examples, such as addressing failed network boots due to incorrect DHCP settings or resolving dropped remote sessions during installation. Understanding remote installation methods is essential for candidates managing geographically dispersed environments or working in situations where physical access to servers is limited. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, where you’ll find more cyber prepcasts, books, and information to strengthen your certification path.
