FEATURES (CONTINUED)
5
AUTOMATIC MONITORING AND NOTIFICATION
Monitors server functions and notifies users if the system becomes nonresponsive,
loses power, has sudden video changes, or other signs of distress. It can
either reset the computer automatically or notify the administrator via e-mail of
any trouble.
ACCESS AND COMPATIBILITY
The interface is browser-based, so it can be used from any computer that is
connected to the Internet or an intranet. No additional software is required, so it is
operating system-neutral. It works equally well with Windows NT, 95, 98, 2000,
Me, MS-DOS, CPM, Linux, FreeBSD, UNIX, and more.
CONTROL AND SECURITY
You can remotely reset the power of the system to recover from a lockup where
Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn’t work, as well as access BIOS and make adjustments. Security
is guarded by multiple users/passwords, SSL encryption, secure web control
interface, and public key certificate support for authentication (optional in
addition to passwords). For use on the public Internet, a number of specialized
security features include:
Up to 10 unique passwords/users
Stealth mode: prevents port scans and other network probes
Turtle mode: unit will self-disable when attacked
Idle time-out for automatic user logout
NETWORK PROTOCOLS
HTTP/1.1 and HTTPS (secure) web server used for control and setup
VNC server (implements RFB 3.3 protocol with Hextile encoding)
Requires one dedicated IP address
TCP/IP port numbers for all services may be changed to confuse attackers
SMTP is used to deliver e-mail notifications
Does not require a DNS server (Domain Name Server) so that it will continue to
operate in the face of this network failure
