Introduction
For most companies, the performance of IT equipment is critical to daily operation. To keep a server, router, PBX, or leased-line modem working properly, it is important to minimize downtime and troubleshoot faulty devices quickly. KVM is commonly used for in-band management of devices that are equipped with a screen and keyboard. However, RS-232 console access is often used as a last resort for all devices.
