Console Management
: Manage a serial device's console port over a network connection. The
Console Management profile allows you to access a Digi device's console port over a network
connection. Most network devices such as routers, switches, and servers offer one or more
serial ports for management. Instead of connecting a terminal to the console port, cable the
console port to the serial port of the ConnectPort LTS product. Then using TCP/IP utilities like
reverse telnet, network administrators can access these consoled serial ports from the LAN.
