Taking Control: IP Devices Promise the Future of Data Center Control and Management

Tags:
switching

Overview IT professionals have always wanted the flexibility of anytime, anywhere access to servers, network devices, and applications. Data centers are constantly at risk from this setup, and, as a result, the need for secure remote management has become a top priority of network administrators. Now, with the affordability of IP remote management devices, organizations of all sizes can benefit from secure over IP access -- via an Internet connection and browser.

How can remote management not make sense, and what is the effect on the information infrastructure? The answer lies in the optimization of IP KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) switches and IP-based remote management devices.

Read this white paper for an understanding of the nature of the current KVM environment related to remote access and control, both for total "Lights Out" scenarios as well as for convenience and time-savings in locally staffed environments.
