10/100/1000 Secure Terminal Servers.
These terminal servers enable you to use your Ethernet, Fast Ethernet,
or Gigabit Ethernet network to securely access as many as 24 remote
serial console ports on equipment such as PBXs, servers, routers,
or network storage equipment.
They not only reliably communicate with RS-232 serial devices,
but the terminal servers autodetect 10-, 100-, and 1000-Mbps networks
and adapt to half- or full duplex operation (except on Gigabit links,
which operate at full duplex only).
The terminal servers have a comprehensive suite of security features
to protect sensitive data sent across a private or public network to
instruments such as retail data systems, bar code scanners, receipt
printers, scanners, and loggers. They do this with advanced Secure Shell
(SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and by supporting AES,
3DES, RC4, RC2, and CAST128 encryption ciphers. User authentication
through RADIUS, TACACS+, LDAP, Kerberos, NIS, and RSA Security’s
SecurID tokens ensures that only authorized users can access the system.
In addition to enabling PPP authentication via PAP or CHAP, you can
lock ports and set up idle port timers, supervisory and port (line)
passwords, per-user access level assignments, and event-related
e-mail alert notifications.
The terminal servers also support serial data tunneling in an IP
network, and because they’re Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)
compliant, they can be used in networks that have upgraded to IPv6
in order to establish more robust IPsec security and gain a lot larger IP
address space. You can also set them up to automatically get IP addresses
from a LAN running a DHCP/BOOTP server.
Housed in a compact chassis that’s designed for use in high-density
enterprise applications, the 10/100/1000 Secure Terminal Servers come
with brackets for convenient rackmounting in just 1U of space.
Mount at their front or back. Up to five device servers can be mounted
in a standard 5U rack.
You can configure the terminal servers multiple ways, including
via direct connections to the serial port or via a configuration wizard.
With the included Windows based Device Management software,
you can assign IP addresses, view statistics, and more. For browser-based
configuration/management, the terminal servers come with a
WebManager utility. Or, if you prefer, manage them via a modem serial
port connection (PPP/SLIP configured for remote access by a Telnet
session), through the network interface using reverse Telnet or reverse
SSH, or from the CLI.
The 10/100/1000 Secure Terminal Servers also support SNMP for
integration into managed networks.
A virtual modem feature provides a “modem like” communi cation
between two terminal servers on a network or between a terminal server
10/100/1000 Secure Terminal Servers, Rackmount
and a host, enabling you to save on the costs of additional modems
connections.
