# Kimsufi, So You Start, and Rise - Get to Know the OVHcloud Control Panel

**Learn about and familiarize yourself with the OVHcloud Control Panel.**

OVHcloud has combined all of its Kimsufi, So you Start, and Rise dedicated servers into a new product line called Eco, to give you a better overview of our configurations. Due to these changes, you can now manage all of your services, across all ranges, from the OVHcloud Control Panel. To support you in this change we will introduce you to the OVHcloud Control Panel and its options.

**Warning:**

**NOTE:&#x20;**&#x50;lease note that despite the interface change, the options available for your server range will remain the same. Some options may not be available for Eco servers.

 

## Instructions

### Dashboard

If you have purchased a server from the Eco product line, you can find your dashboard in the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/). The **Dashboard** provides a summary of all your services. This interface has several sections that allow you to access a service instantly.

The right-hand column gives you access to your personal information, customer code, invoices, and help center. It also provides a set of shortcuts and useful links.

 

### Accessing a server

From the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/), select `Bare Metal Cloud` from the top navigation bar, then click `Dedicated servers` to display your servers.

If you have several servers, the `All my servers` button allows you to list them for easy access.

Click on the server of your choice to access its interface.

 

### Server interface

Once you have selected your server, you will see an interface with several panels of information. Some of the most useful are:

#### General information

- **Name:** Click the _more options_ `...` button to change the name of your server.
- **Boot:** Click the _more options_ `...` button to change the netboot of your server to _rescue mode_, _normal mode_ (hard disk), or _network mode_.
- **Operating system (OS):** Click the _more options_ `...` button to install/reinstall your server.

#### Service status

- **Status:** Click the _more options_ `...` button to reboot or delete your server.
- **Monitoring:** Click `Disable interventions >` to change the [monitoring settings of your server](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/bare-metal-cloud/dedicated-servers/ovhcloud-monitoring-ip-addresses.md#server-monitoring).

#### Network

- **IPv4:** Click the _more options_ `...` button to manage your IP.
- **Reverse DNS:** Click the _more options_ `...` button to enter/modify your reverse DNS.

There are also several other tabs across the top.

**Secondary DNS:** Configure your secondary DNS here. For more information, consult the following [guide](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/bare-metal-cloud/dedicated-servers/configuring-secondary-dns-dedicated-server.md).

**Interventions**: Find here the current and past interventions made on your server.

**IPMI/KVM** (only available on OVHcloud servers and some So you Start servers including those in the Eco line): Access your server's IPMI or KVM IP here. For more information about using this tool, see [this guide](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/bare-metal-cloud/dedicated-servers/use-ipmi-console.md).

**Tasks**: Here you can view recent tasks performed on your server.

For more information on managing your dedicated server via the OVHcloud Control Panel, please refer to [this guide](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/bare-metal-cloud/dedicated-servers/getting-started-dedicated-server-windows-linux.md).

 

### Section IP

To access the IP section of the OVHcloud Control Panel, click on the `Bare Metal Cloud` menu and open `Network`. Next, click on `IP`.

 

### Licenses tab (not offered on Kimsufi)

To access the Licenses tab in the OVHcloud Control Panel, click on the `Bare Metal Cloud` menu, then open `Licenses`.

 

### Support, Billing, and Account Management

To view your account, click on your name in the top right-hand corner and then click on your initials. There are several areas available from the left-hand navigation menu.

The table below shows some of the most useful content in each of these areas.
