SOLUTION

Out-of-band management tools by Avocent

The AlterPath Manager appliance, combined with Cyclades ACS console servers, lets

FastWeb more easily access and monitor its 900+ UNIX and Linux servers along

with other IT equipment from a single appliance. In addition to incident resolution

capabilities, out-of-band management tools by Avocent provide FastWeb with

increased IT asset visibility, which includes the ability to constantly monitor devices

and alert staff to incidents.

IMPLEMENTATION

Out-of-band management tools by Avocent save FastWeb time and money

FastWeb purchased the AlterPath Manager E2000 appliance as a central point from which

IT professionals can log in to securely view, access and manage Cyclades ACS advanced

console servers. It is used in conjunction with existing systems management applications

as part of a comprehensive system that provides complete access to networked assets,

even when they are disconnected from the network.

The AlterPath Manager's data logging and event handling features provide remote

incident diagnosis and resolution while its change and configuration feature enables

automated updates to managed out-of-band management equipment, including Cyclades

ACS console servers. The AlterPath Manager's integrated authentication, authorization

and accounting (AAA) security policies, along with SSH/SSL encryption, restrict access to

authorized users while providing a single sign-on and complete audited session

capabilities.

"Console logging provides us with information that would otherwise be inaccessible," said

Riccardo Montanaro, Director of IT Operations, whose organization oversees the

management of 1,500 servers and the applications running on them. "This is especially

useful when dealing with hardware problems and system crashes. Having the

information at hand to analyze the problem and the ability to remotely access the

equipment replaces the need to travel to data centers, saving us time and money."
