The Perle IOLAN SCG Console Servers provide data center managers with the ultimate solution for redundant. secure remote console management of any device with an RS232 RJ45 console port. With integrated firewall. two-factor authentication. advanced failover to multiple networks. and Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). your IT professionals and network operations center (NOC) personnel will have everything they need to easily perform secure remote data center management and out-of-band management of IT assets from anywhere in the world. This cost-effective 1U rack solution also maintains protocol integrity across Ethernet and adds full IPv4/IPv6 routing capabilities with support for RIP. OSPF. and BGP protocols.Console Management for IT assetsThe IOLAN SCG Console Server supports RS232 RJ45 connectivity to console ports on equipment such as Cisco routers. switches. firewalls. servers (Solaris. Windows. Unix and Linux) PBXs. network storage equipment and security appliances through an IP network. The RS232 RJ45 ports are software configurable to use straight thru or rolled cables to connect your Cisco equipment. In addition. a DCD pin can be configured for 3rd party devices that need this extra signal. The means the Perle IOLAN SCG supports more serial devices than any other Console Server on the market. This makes it an ideal out of band management solution for IT equipment located in data centers or remote sites.Advanced Network Security. Authentication. and Data Encryption2 Factor Authentication (2FA) ensures access to equipment and data is limited to authorized users. while remote authentication (RADIUS. TACACS+. & LDAP) management. enables integration with enterprise-grade systems to control access to devices in the field.The built-in firewall offers intuitive policies to protect inside networks from unauthorized access. The firewall also allows inside networks to be separated from each other. If there are network resources that need to be available to an outside user. such as a web or FTP server. these resources can be placed on a separate network behind the firewall in a demilitarized zone (DMZ).Network data transmissions and access to remote console admin ports on IT equipment are protected through standard encryption tools such as Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL). By using encryption technologies. an IOLAN SCG Console Server protects sensitive and confidential data before being sent across a corporate Intranet or public Internet. For compatibility with peer encryption devices. all the major encryption ciphers such as AES. 3DES. RC4. RC2. and CAST128 are fully supported.With multiple concurrent VPN sessions. OpenVPN. and IPSec VPN. robust authentication and encryption of IP packets is provided at the network layer of the OSI model. This is ideal for multi-vendor interoperation within a network. providing flexibility and the ability to match the right solution for a particular application.Multiple Out-of-Band (OOB) access methodsEvery IOLAN SCG L Console Server comes with two secure remote access methods to critical network devices.- The built-in high-speed LTE with HSPA+. UMTS. EDGE and GPRS/GSM fallback networks to protect your data center and branch office out-of-band management infrastructure against wired LAN failure. It can also be used to transmit serial data or establish a direct serial to serial peer connection. over cellular networks. This is ideal when devices are located where hardwired Ethernet connections are not available but cellular networks. with their affordable data packages. are accessible.- Any dual combination of the two 10/100/1000Base-T Copper Ports and two 100/1000Base-X SFP Fiber Ports can be used to meet your unique network access requirements. This design provides users with a flexible. cost-effective solution to transmit data from mission-critical equipment over Copper or Fiber based Ethernet networks. When connecting to a fiber network. the pluggable SFP ports allow for flexible network configurations using SFP Optical Transceivers supplied by Perle. Cisco or other manufacturers of MSA compliant SFPs.High Availability AccessCloud-based OOBMTo simplify management and respond swiftly to issues. network administrators require access to all console ports via a single portal view. Perle's cloud-based centralized management solution puts all your network and IT infrastructure into a single application and provides secure reliable access and visibility during normal operations and critical network failures. Scalable to suit any business requirement. Cloud Centralized Management reduces human error and guarantees repeatability.The IOLAN SCG also has built-in fault-tolerant capabilities to ensure secure and reliable access for managing important mission-critical equipment. Redundant Path technology assures availability to Console Management ports through Active Standby or Dual Network Access modes. Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRPv3) enables a grou
This product would be ideal for businesses and organizations requiring high-speed, multi-mode network connectivity solutions for advanced data transfers and streaming.
