Maximum Availability
Our dedicated servers offer protection against hardware failure, giving maximum
availability to your server. In the unlikely event of physical hardware failure on
any of our cluster nodes, your server will be automatically restarted on another
node reducing downtime to minutes rather than hours.
Full Remote Control
You are fully in control of your server. Remote console access is available using
any supported web browser*, allowing you to:
- Remote control your servers' console
- Power on / off and hard reboot
- Pass-through local CD-ROM / floppy drives
(* Internet Explorer 6+ and Firefox 1.5+)
Additional remote control is provided through Remote Desktop (Windows), or SSH (Linux).
SAN Storage
Storage for your servers' OS and it's data are located on our HP StorageWorks iSCSI
Storage Area Network (SAN). Storing data on a SAN means it's not only highly
available, but is easy for you to add additional storage as required.
Network & Firewalls
Your server comes with 1 public IP address, you can add extra IP's in blocks of 8 for £10 per month.
Physical networks are redundant with Gigabit uplinks and multiple internet connections. Firewalls
provide security at the edge (internet), and isolate your server internally.
Internet addresses are assigned direct to your server, with either the Windows or Linux
firewalls enabled. If you wish to use your own 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x or 172.16.x.x IP addresses
for your server, you will need a Managed Firewall between your server and the internet. Managed
Firewalls cost £100 per year.
All prices exclude VAT.
