Support for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 in Digi Passport
The Digi Passport unit provides a browser-based user interface to
Microsoft’s text-based Special Administration Console (SAC), an integral
part of Windows Server 2003 Emergency Management Services (EMS).
Both the English and International versions of SAC are now supported.
When a server running Windows Server 2003 is connected to the Digi
Passport unit’s serial port, key SAC functions--normally accessed from the
command line--are available from a graphical user interface (GUI). SAC
features accessible from this interface include:
• Reset and shutdown.
• Show performance values like memory utilization.
• Show and configure IP settings per interface.
• Show the process list and kill processes.
While the EMS port is available at all times using Telnet or SSH, the special
GUI is available only while SAC is active.
