location, to configure the Console Server, set up Users, configure the ports and connected hosts, and set
up logging and alerts.
An authorized User can use the Management Console to access and control configured devices, review
port logs, use the in-built java terminal to access serially attached consoles and control power to
connected devices.
The Console Server runs an embedded Linux operating system. Experienced Linux and UNIX users may
prefer to undertake configuration at the command line. As an Administrator you can get command line
access by connecting through a terminal emulator or communications program to the console serial
port; or by SSH or Telnet connecting to the Console Server over the LAN; or by connecting to the
Console Server through an SSH tunnel using the SDTConnector.
The B092-016 Console Server also has PowerAlert software and a selection of thin clients embedded
(RDP, Firefox etc). You will be able to use these consoles as well as the standard Management Console
for access and control.
