What it does

Type it in your own game console after setting the matching rcon_password. Everything after rcon runs on the server as if typed in its console.

The game's own description: Issue an rcon command.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to game/csgo/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS2 server first.
