Out-of-Band Management: Advanced Automation for Enterprise Networks

While enterprise networks vary widely in form and function, good network management is always essential. Advanced out-of-band (OOB) management not only ensures secure access to remote gear during an outage, it also automates many daily tasks that can unnecessarily consume much of a network admin’s day.

Lantronix’s complete out-of-band portfolio enables you to choose a console server sized to each deployment, the type of OOB link and the types of serial console connections needed. Our single pane of glass management platform provides the remote access, reporting and compliance needed for enterprise networks.

Increase Network Resiliency with Out-of-Band Management

The console server used to be like an insurance policy – something you bought but hoped to never use. Today, using an out-of-band link for network management is highly recommended by top federal security agencies including the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency and the National Security Agency. In addition to reducing cybersecurity risks, the Lantronix LM-Series provides advanced automation that makes day-to-day network management easier and more secure.

Automate Your Enterprise Network Management With Out-of-Band Console Servers

Using Lantronix out-of-band console servers for your network management channel opens unique opportunities for automation that are simply not available with other console server vendors. Lantronix console servers deliver granular authorization that integrate with your existing access controls as well as automated change management functions including the ability to store multiple config and OS files with local backups to enable automated rollback of failed config changes. A Lantronix out-of-band console server is not an insurance policy; it’s a platform for improving network management. 

Speed Up Your Out-of-Band Deployment With Zero-Touch Deployment

All of the console servers in the Lantronix out-of-band management portfolio can be deployed with zero-touch deployment, enabling you to get up and running faster. For the LM-Series devices, plug-and-play setup in the field utilizes the Lantronix Control Center to apply standard configurations once, then deploy to multiple remote LMs. For SLC and EMG devices, Lantronix ConsoleFlow  easily provisions remote devices.

Simplify Cellular Out-of-Band Deployment with Lantronix

Cellular out-of-band is today’s most common and reliable channel for OOB links. While speeds have increased greatly and options like Cat-M1 modems provide far-reaching signals delivering reliability even deep in network closets, navigating SIM cards, cellular contracts, and APNs can be a challenge. With the deep engineering experience built into the cellular OOB of Level Technical Services and Lantronix Connectivity Services, Lantronix can get your out-of-band management up and running faster, easier and with fewer headaches.
