BareMetal management console

The management console is a user interface allowing you to manage the Yandex BareMetal resources.

The BareMetal management console consists of the following sections:

Servers Servers

This section is where you rent BareMetal servers, edit their basic settings, start, restart, and stop servers, reinstall their operating system, and terminate their rent.

Additionally, this section gives each BareMetal server a KVM console, which is a specialized UI where you can manage the server at the OS level, edit its additional settings, start it from bootable media, and install operating systems and other software from custom images.

For more information about BareMetal servers, see Servers.

Private subnets Private subnets

This section is where you manage private subnets and their settings.

A private subnet is a virtual local area network (VLAN) that groups BareMetal servers together within one server pool at L2 OSI level. This network is physically isolated from the internet and logically from other users' virtual networks.

For more information about private subnets, see Private network.

VRF VRF

This section is where you manage virtual network segments, static routes, and private connections to cloud networks.

Virtual network segments (VRFs) provide OSI L3 network connectivity. VRFs enable connectivity between BareMetal servers located in different server pools, as well as between BareMetal servers and other Yandex Cloud resources.

For more information about virtual network segments, see Virtual network segment (VRF).

Public addresses and subnets Public addresses and subnets

This section is where you manage IP addresses and subnets in a public network.

A public network gives BareMetal servers access to the internet. To give a server access to the internet, assign a public IP address to it.

For more information about public networks and public subnets, see Public network.

Boot images Boot images

This section is where you upload and delete custom images of operating systems and software products in BareMetal.

You can install operating systems and other software on BareMetal servers from custom images. Do it by uploading your image to Yandex BareMetal and initiating installation from that image using the KVM console.

For more information about custom images, see Custom images.

Operations Operations

This section contains information about operations with Yandex BareMetal resources and their statuses.

Whenever you invoke any operation that changes the status of a Yandex Cloud resource, an Operation object is created, which you can use to track the status of the operation.

For more information about operations in Yandex Cloud, see Working with operations.
