VNC Console is a tool for diagnosing and managing instances that runs in a browser. Use the VNC console if:

  • the instance does not have an external IP address or is not connected to the Internet;
  • The recommended ways to connect to the instance (via SSH or RDP) do not work.
  • setting a root password for an instance on Windows OS.

Access to the VNC console appears immediately after the instance is launched. This allows you to detect failures during the boot of the operating system.
