Recently I have taking over the responsibility of managing about 18 remote
routers and firewalls. None of these have a console port for 'out of
band' access accessible today.
Most sites has available IPs between the ISP and us (typically a /29) or a
backup DSL connection available for use. I'd like to purchase a IP to
Serial port device I can use for each location in the event I lock myself
out. The requirement would be an Ethernet port, a serial port, and SSH.
Anyone have any recommendations on something like this?
thanks much,
greg
