Black Box Console Server user guide 116
Introduction
Once the unit has been configured and users added using the procedures given in
Chapter 2 Installation and Chapter 3 System administration, you can begin to use it as
a console server.
There are three methods of accessing the devices attached to the serial ports:
• Accessing devices via telnet from the LAN. See page 117
• Accessing devices via SSH from the LAN. See page 118
• Accessing devices via modems on a dial in link using PPP. See page 122
• Accessing devices via modems on a dial in link with no network. See page 123
