Interoperability FAQs

Question

Answer

Interoperability

How does CC-SG integrate
with Blade Chassis
products?

CC-SG can support any device with a KVM or serial
interface as a transparent pass-through.

To what level is CC-SG able
to integrate with third party
KVM tools, down to third
party KVM port level or
simply box level?

Third party KVM switch integration is typically done
through keyboard macros when the third party KVM
vendors do not publicize the communications
protocols for the third party KVM switches. Depending
on the capability of the third party KVM switches, the
tightness of integration will vary.

How would I mitigate the
restriction of four
simultaneous paths through
any IP-Reach box, including
the roadmap for the potential
8-path box?

Currently, the best possible implementation is to
aggregate IP-Reach boxes with CC-SG. In the future,
Raritan plans to increase simultaneous access paths
per box. These plans have yet to complete
development as other projects have taken priority, but
we welcome comments about the market demand and
use cases of an 8-path solution.

Authorization FAQs

Question

Answer

Authorization

Can authorization be
achieved via
RADIUS/TACACS/LDAP?

LDAP and TACACS are used for remote
authentication only, not authorization.

User Experience FAQs

Question

Answer

User Experience

Regarding console
management via network
port or local serial port, such
as COM2: What happens to
the logging? Does CC-SG
capture local management?

Logging into CC-SG through the CC-SG console itself
is the same as gaining the root privilege of the
operating system (Linux) upon with CC-SG is running.
Syslog will record this event, but what the user types
at the CC-SG console itself will be lost.
