Specifications
terminated cable in your network
environment and not have to buy
an array of serial device adapters.
The console server is secure,
too. It features Secure SHell (SSH)
Version 2 encryption so you can
manage your infrastructure with-
out worrying about intruders
intercepting your sensitive data.
And because the Advanced
Console Server offers compatibility
with many of today‘s most-popular
user authentication schemes, it
can be seamlessly integrated into
existing security policies. In addi-
tion to SSH services, it works well
with Remote Dial-In Service
(RADIUS) servers, Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
services, legacy Terminal Access
Controller Access Control System
(TACACS) communications, and
SecurID authentication.
The Advanced Console Server
protects against spurious RS-232
break signals at the console, too.
This makes it the perfect in-band
and out-of-band management tool
for applications that rely on Sun
®
servers.
Used as a terminal server, the
Advanced Console Server
supports either a single IP address
or a single IP address per serial
port. You can also cluster multiple
units to appear as one logical unit
for wide area management of up
to 512 ports. By virtual clustering,
all ports appear grouped together
as a single, high-density server
that occupies only a single IP
address.
Unlimited port mirroring
enables any number of users
to concurrently access specific
consoles in both read-only and
read/write modes. By distributing
server-management operations
this way, your team can resolve
issues more quickly and bring a
higher level of efficiency to your
enterprise.
And you won’t spend a lot
of time setting up and enabling
the advanced features on the
Advanced Console Server. In fact,
it can be configured several ways:
through a Web-based GUI; by
using its built-in interactive setup
wizards; or via the command line
interface.
