# Managing BareMetal servers

To order servers and manage your server rent periods, use the [management console](console.md): from there, you can select a stock configuration or build a custom one from available parts. 

As soon as your server is ordered and ready to go, you can manage it via:

* [KVM console](../operations/servers/server-kvm.md)
* [CLI](../cli-ref/index.md)
* [API](../api-ref/index.md)

You can get audit logs of your operations using [Audit Trails](../at-ref.md), and manage roles and accesses via [Identity and Access Management](../security/index.md).
