About the Console Server
The Console Server is a console server which allows you to communicate directly via
the serial port to networked devices (such as routers, servers and so on) in order to
perform system administration tasks.
The Console Server allows system administrators to diagnose and fix from anywhere
on the LAN/WAN or via a modem thus saving on administrator's time and costs to
keep system disruption to a minimum.
Typically, you use the Console Server when a server or network device fails at a
remote site or if you want to perform administration tasks from home. Using a
Console Server you can access the unit over the LAN/WAN or via dial-in.
The Console Server is available in the following variants;
• 16 port
• 24 port
