Managing Your VPS from the JetHost Client Area
Every JetHost VPS comes with a full self-service control panel built right into the Client Area – no tickets, no waiting. This guide gives you a tour of every management option so you know exactly what each tab does.
Where to find the VPS controls
Log in to the JetHost Client Area and open Services -> My Products & Services, then click your VPS to open its Product Details page. You’ll see the status, plan and recurring amount, with the management tabs along the top.
Details
The Details tab shows your server at a glance: status, operating system, datacenter location, storage, CPU cores, memory and main IP address. It’s the first place to look to confirm your VPS specs.
Power
The Power tab lets you Start, Stop or Reboot your VPS on demand, and shows the current power status.
Networking
Under Networking you can view the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses assigned to your VPS, set reverse DNS (PTR) records, and manage null-routing.
Reinstall
The Reinstall tab lets you install a fresh operating system in a couple of clicks. Reinstalling erases all data on the VPS, so it always shows a clear warning first.
Snapshots
Snapshots save the current state of your VPS disk so you can roll back later. You can create an on-demand snapshot at any time – free of charge.
Console
The Console tab opens a browser-based VNC session straight to your machine, which is invaluable if SSH ever becomes unreachable.
Credentials
Credentials stores your VPS login details. You can reveal them with Show Logins or perform a root password reset (the VPS must be stopped first).
Firewall
The Firewall tab manages cloud firewall rules by protocol, source CIDR and port range – no command line needed.
Metrics
Metrics shows your data traffic usage over the last 30 days, split by download and upload, with totals and peaks.
Recovery
Recovery lets you attach a rescue or utility ISO to boot from when troubleshooting. There’s also an Other tab for additional actions.
JetHost Experts Tip
Bookmark the Product Details page. Every day-to-day task – rebooting, opening the console, resetting a password, adding a firewall rule – lives here, so you rarely need to open a support ticket.
