The AMX5000 is a 32-port main switching box connecting

to clients across a CAT 5 interface. The matrix switch

allows access from a single point or simultaneous access

for up to eight users throughout the data centre. The

AMX5100 is a desktop user station that connects the client

to the AMX5000. Avocent's OSCAR

management tool then allows for convenient switching

between devices or AMXWorks (an advanced Java-based

system administration tool) allowing for centralised

administration. The AMX solution can drive servers up to

1,000 feet away from the controllers' desks.

KVM over IP: the missing

piece for server management

eircom also deployed Avocent's feature rich DS and DSR

lines to provide remote access across TCP/IP connections.

The company deployed the DS1800 digital KVM over IP

solution at its Dundrum data centre to interface with the

analogue XP solution already in place and to provide

remote access. eircom also deployed six DSR KVM over IP

switches (comprising of DSR1161, 2161 and 4160

appliances) at its Citywest multimedia data centre. This

provides both local and remote access.

The DS1800 allows eircom IT managers to remotely

access multiple racks of servers through an Ethernet

connection. Video processing and compression algorithms

minimise the required network bandwidth to transmit

keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) signals. The DSR KVM

over IP switches enable access and control of up to 16

servers per unit either at the rack or from any location

over standard IP connections. The DSR range uses DSRIQ

smart cabling for an all CAT 5 solution to and from the

rack.

Both the DS and DSR solutions feature the easy to use

DSView Graphical User Interface (GUI). This is a client-

side Windows application providing secure Click and

Connect™ connections to any connected device, using IP

connections and DES encryption.

Secure access: anytime, anywhere

Donagh Quish, Network Administrator at eircom explains

that up to 40 of eircom's network management staff have

remote access using the DSView interface. "This level of

accessibility can be increased where required. DSView

provides an overall view of all connected servers.

Through NT domain authentication, authorised users can

identify and troubleshoot problems and shut down or

reboot servers if necessary. The majority of issues are

usually resolved remotely and direct intervention at the

rack is increasingly rare. Each main server room also has

a remote station as an additional back-up."

Using DSAuth user authentication software and the

DSAdmin GUI, the network manager can easily validate

requests for access to individual servers. DSAuth

automatically stores user domains, permissions, topology

and per-device contact information. The DS series also

has NT security features which was one of the main

reasons for its selection by eircom.
