control page that replaces the OSD for KVM over IP sessions. The KVN/net
Plus also features the capability to connect to RDP servers via an in band
connection. The RDP capability can be configured and controlled from the
APM.
KVM/net FW Upgrade Support
Starting with Version 1.4.0, the AlterPath Manager supports firmware
upgrades for the KVM/net. The upgrade facility provides system
compatibility checks, copies the firmware, checks the validity of the copy, and
reboots the system. The firmware package incorporates KVM/net firmware,
KVM over IP module firmware, boot code, microcode for the KVM switch,
microcode for the terminators, and microcode for the KVM RP.
Support for OnSite
The AlterPath OnSite is a compact device that has serial console ports like an
ACS and KVM ports like a KVM/net. The AlterPath Manager supports
viewing of ACS-based consoles as well as Keyboard-Video-Mouse-based
consoles through the use of an AlterPath OnSite installed in the network.
Support for IPMI
The AlterPath Manager supports servers that are based on IPMI (Intelligent
Platform Management Interface), the open standard for machine health and
control (including remote control). IPMI defines common interfaces to the
“intelligent” hardware that is used to monitor server physical health
characteristics, such as temperature, voltage, fans, power supplies and more.
These monitoring capabilities provide AlterPath Manager users information
that allow power control of servers, recovery, and asset tracking.
The AlterPath Manager allows multiple, concurrent IPMI CLI (Command
Line Interface) sessions. The number of sessions allowed matches the number
of DLSs activated (see “Centralized Data Logging System” on page 6).
Note:
IPMI is a paid-for option for AlterPath Manager users. The feature is
enabled only for users who have purchased the option.
