# Create IPMI credentials

`POST /servers/{server_id}/remote_access`

Generates IPMI credentials for a given server. Remote access creates a VPN connection to the internal network of your server so you can connect to its IPMI.
You will have to use a VPN client such as https://openvpn.net to connect. See `VPN Sessions` API to create a VPN connection.
