• Extensive management of third-party UPSs and PDUs using open source NUT and
Powerman tools. The Manage: Power facility enables both administrators and
regular users to monitor and control attached PDU power strips, and servers with
embedded IPMI BMCs.
• Historical logs of all communications with serial and network attached devices,
system activity, UPS and PDU power status, environmental status, etc. The level of
logging is set as ports and devices are configured. Alerts & Logging: Port Log
enables this history to be saved locally or remotely. Logs can be viewed from the
Status and Manage menus.
• Other advanced features, such as Dashboard, Serial Port Cascading, remote
Authentication, Trusted Networks, Secure Tunneling, Nagios Distributed
Monitoring, and the Command Line interface are covered in detail in the User’s
Manual on the CD-ROM.
NOTE: On the CD-ROM, you will also find the SDT Connector software tool. Once
you have configured the console server, this tool provides you with secure,
point-and-click access to it and all its attached managed devices. Refer to the
provided SDT Connector Quick Start Guide for details on setting up remote
management of the console server and connected devices.
