Features & Applications

The SERIMUXŽ Secure SSH Console Serial Switch delivers secure management of up to 32 serial devices via the internet, TCP/IP network, or dial-up modem connections. It combines the advanced security of Secure Shell v2 with unlimited access to remote network management.

Supports embedded server management technologies including Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI), Dell Remote Access Cards (DRAC) and HP Integrated Lights Out (iLO).
IPv4/IPv6 dual protocol stack provides flexible networking support for devices operating in today's IPv4 based networks and compatibility with future upgrades to IPv6 environments.
Supports Perl language for customizable log searching and event notification.
Dual Ethernet and optional dual power provide redundant connectivity and power.
USB port and PC Card slot provide expanded logging storage, automatic configuration and additional functionality.
Provides Serial over Lan access (RMCP+).

Enhanced WebUI (User Interface) provides visibility to all ports on one screen, with point and click capability. SAC GUI interface and IPMI GUI interface also included.
Powerful diagnostic and event management features (data capture, notification and scripting) assist in the quick location of the source of equipment failures and minimize downtime.
Supports Windows Server 2003 Emergency Management Services - helps IT/Telco administrators perform emergency recovery tasks when the server is not accessible through the network.
Enhanced security features to protect the system-Secure Shell (SSH v2), individual port authentication, IP filtering, HTTPS.
Supports secure clustering of up to 16 slave units. Allows encrypted access of up to 512 devices connected to multiple master or slave switches.
Sun Solaris ready for easy installation, use and interoperability with a Sun network computing environment.
1RU case is standard. Includes rack mounting kit.
