FEATURES
Access up to 8 or 16 serial devices securely over a mixed-speed
Ethernet network with the 10 /100 /1000 Secure Devices Servers,
Rackmount from Black Box.
With software-selectable serial interfaces for connection to RS-232,
RS-422, and RS-485 devices, the flexible device servers enable you to
quickly link standard office equipment, data-acquisition devices, and
serial hardware on your factory floor to your Ethernet, Fast Ethernet,
or Gigabit Ethernet LAN.
Use them to securely access remote serial ports on equipment such
as PBXs, servers, routers, network storage equipment, and security
appliances through an IP network. You can even custom ize baud rates
for unique speed requirements.
And there’s no need to worry about data security. The device servers
use Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and
fully support AES, 3DES, RC4, RC2, and CAST128 ciphers. These enable
you to safeguard sensitive data communi cations, such as confidential
user account information processed by credit card readers or other serial
equipment in retail applications.
You can limit access to authorized users by taking advantage of
the device servers’ extensive authentication scheme, including RADIUS,
TACACS+, LDAP, Kerberos, NIS, and RSA Security’s SecurID tokens.
The device servers’ compact 1U rackmount chassis is ideal for
high-density enterprise applications. The included brackets enable
you to mount them from the front or the back of the chassis,
depending on your environment. Up to five device servers can be
mounted in a 5U rack.
The 10/100/1000 Secure Device Servers also support Internet
Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), making them compatible with networks that
have upgraded to this new IP standard. Plus the included COM redirect
software provides fixed TTY or COM ports so server-based applications
can communicate accurately with serial devices across IP networks in
encrypted or clear text modes. They’re also capable of establishing
pseudo” links via Telnet, Rlogin, UDP, or TCP socket-based applications
to remote devices.
You also have a number of configuration and management options.
The included Windows based Device Management software enables you
to centrally control multiple device servers, so you get maximum uptime
for your remote equipment. Assign IP addresses to new 10/100/1000
Secure Device Servers, update firmware, create configuration files,
view statistics, and more.
Or configure and manage a device server via a Web browser.
With the included WebManager software, just type an IP address
into your browser to access the device server.
You can also connect the device servers directly via a serial port link
with serial terminal or terminal emulation software, through a modem
connection to the serial port (PPP/SLIP configured for remote access by
a Telnet session), or from the network through the Ethernet interface
10/100/1000 Secure Device Servers, Rackmount
using reverse Telnet or reverse SSH.
The device servers also support SNMP for integration into managed
networks.
Port buffering enables you to capture and hold local and remote
serial port activity in memory for viewing and troubleshooting at a later
stage without affecting the normal operation of the serial ports.
