The functionality provides the benefit of achieving SSH relay to target servers without a requirement of installation of a client or an agent as the SSH session can be achieved in the web browser. This functionality requires an Agentless module to be installed on Privileged Account Manager Linux manager.
NOTE:You cannot add scripts when you are using SSH Web Relay.
Ensure that the agentless module is installed.
The agentless component of Privileged Account Manager (agentless) is supported only on Windows, SLES 12 (64-bit), SLES 15 (64-bit), Oracle Linux 8 (64-bit), or RHEL 8 (64-bit).
NOTE:
For Oracle Linux 8 (64-bit) and RHEL 8 (64 bit), install the redhat-lsb-core package.
For SLES 12 (64-bit) and SLES 15 (64-bit), install the lsb-release package.
You must install libpango and libcairo, and the dependent packages for both SLES and RHEL. Additionally for RHEL alone install dejavu-sans-fonts.
Advantages of configuring the secure shell web relay are:
You can configure SSH Web Relay for Linux and Unix machines to allow users to remotely access these machines without the privileged account credentials.
This method is beneficial if you do not want any operating system installed software or client.
Removes the requirement of JMobaXterm to help application to be launched on a client desktop by using resources that are hosted a remotely.
You can administer the live view of the SSH Web Relay session in real time as it opens in the My Access page.
Removes the requirement of Java Network Launch Protocol (JNLP) to help application to be launched on a client desktop by using resources that are hosted on a remote web server.
