1.3 Software Features
The SCS is designed with network administrators in mind. No need for special administration
tools, training or procedures. You know Linux, we run Linux.
• Open-source Linux Operating System (Red Hat distribution)
• Proprietary command-line options for SCS features follow the
familiar Linux / UNIX command formats for ease of administration
• Factory pre-configured to be operational out-of-the-box within a few minutes - the
sysadmin need only set the IP address and add users
The SCS line allows up to 250 simultaneous user sessions to access up to 48 serial ports. The
attached network components may be any variety of network center servers, workstations, or other
devices having a serial port that must be monitored.
1.4 Hardware Features
The SCS systems are designed for network data center applications, which tend to facilitate mount-
ing a product in industry-standard 19-inch network equipment racks. The SCS may be placed on a shelf
or counter, instead. Each SCS operates independently and is accessible (setup by your System Admin-
istrator or “sysadmin”) using a secure network connection or a local serial terminal.
