2. Introduction
The IP Control extends your KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) from any computer or
server over TCP/IP via LAN, WAN or Internet connection. Now you can control,
monitor and manage your servers from wherever you are, inside or outside the
organization. The IP Control is a cost-effective hardware solution, for secure
remote KVM access & control of a computer/server from the BIOS level -
independent of the OS. It is designed to connect to a single computer or to a KVM
switch to control multiple servers, over TCP/IP communication.
3. Key features
BIOS level control to any server’s brand and model, regardless of the server
condition and network connectivity, covering the entire spectrum of crash
scenarios.
Compatible with all major operating systems. Supports many hardware and
software configurations for the remote client and the target server computers, as
well as the KVM switch in use.
Web-based Control - Browser based control of a target server, from any
location via secured standard IP connection.
Multi-user view mode - Allows simultaneous users to view remote sessions.
Remote control can be intuitively handed between users with appropriate
permissions.
