How it works

From one IP adress the CommandCenter provides access to local or remote data centers. CommandCenter delivers maximum access and control performance, providing users with a streamlined, unified interface that fronts up to 1,000 managed console ports and up to 10,000 keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) ports. Serial access is provided by deploying Raritan's line of Dominion serial console management appliances. KVM access is offered through Raritan's IP-enabled family of Paragon or Dominion KVM switches. CommandCenter is the ideal solution for corporate IT departments or service providers that have a large number of heterogeneous IT devices in their data center(s).

Features

• Web-based BIOS level console access via modem allows for reboot and rescue of servers even when the network is down
• Redundant power supply provides fail-over protection when power failures occur
• Redundant NICs backs-up the network card, providing protection should the network card fail
• Built-in applet support allows control of Raritan power strips via GUI interface
• Dual Ethernet, mirrored hard drives and dual independent power supplies ensures a network stays up and running
• Compatible with Raritan's Dominion KVM, serial and remote office appliances, resulting in a single, scalable, efficient and cost-effective management network for all mission-critical equipment
• SSL 128-bit RSA public key, 128-private key encryption; Centralized security policies, access rights, permissions and user-defined views; access via SSL or SSH - all provide the highest levels of network security available
• Third-party authentication support including Active Directory (AD), I Planet, eDirectory, RADIUS and TACACS+ leverages value of existing technology to enhance security
• Hardened LINUX Operating System (OS) - kernel-based OS with hacker-proof architecture prevents unauthorized access
• Flexible, fast access with single sign-on and single IP address over VPN, Internet or Intranet - simplifies the complexity of managing multiple IP addresses
• Custom scripting capability simplifies bulk operations such as device configurations and user set-ups
• Comprehensive event management, logging, reporting and audit trails eases and centralizes administration
• Bulk scripting capability centralizes firmware maintenance on CommandCenter networks, Computer Interface Modules (CIMS) and other Raritan devices
• Multiple viewing filters provide powerful filtering of all users, by type by activity and logons resulting in a valuable "snapshot" of who is on the network, what they are doing and when
• Advanced reporting capabilities delivers valuable administrative reports on active users, accessed devices, active ports, asset management, audit trails, error logs, firmware reports and ping reports
• Proxy and referral presentation options for access to managed targets allows highly flexible presentation of Dominion appliances, ports, users and port display in a simple tree-style arrangement
