All Game Host Bros Squad servers have RCON turned on, with a random password set when your server is created. You can run RCON commands straight from the server Console, or connect admin tools that support Squad, such as BattleMetrics or SquadJS.

Enter.
RCON Settings
Your RCON port and password are managed in Bropanel, so there's no need to edit any configuration files. If you're using an external RCON tool, enter your server's IP address with the RCON Port, then log in with the RCON Password. RCON uses TCP.
