Management software
Each server company that offers a service processor produces its own client
side software to access the servers’ management features through the service
processor. In some cases, management software is imbedded in the service
processor and is presented either as a web interface or as a command line
interface accessed using SSH or Telnet, or as both a web interface and
command line interface. In other cases, the management software is installed
in a client workstation and accesses the management features of the service
processor using an IP-based protocol, such as IPMI. Each type of software
only manages one server, does not scale, does not address the need for
consolidated access-control, multi-user access, data logging, and event
detection, encyrption and other needs. The <ProductName> (Change variable
definition) addresses these needs and provides a single interface to access
basic features of multiple-vendors’ service processors.
