Overview

The SCS - Secure Console Server provides a new benchmark in price-performance while offering a level of fault-tolerance and reliability unmatched in the industry

Resembles a true Linux network server

Unlike traditional console servers the SCS operates more like a network server that a network appliance. Modular in design, the core of the SCS is an x86-based computer running GNU/Linux. In addition, the SCS has built in technologies such as 512 MB compact flash drive and support for plug-compatible micro drives. Upon setup the SCS generates a unique set of host keys, a crucial security feature which some traditional console servers lack. Another exceptional feature of Thinklogical’s console server line is full distribution, non-embedded Linux. The SCS is the only console server on the market that is able to integrate into the system and configuration management software programs that are being utilized by an enterprise. This enables users to customize the capacity of the SCS, as well as its level of integration into their particular environment. In addition, users are able to match security technology to fit their processes while modifying and enhancing features to meet their specifications.

Custom designed GUI for ease of installation and maintenance

Integrated in the SCS is a custom designed GUI developed for non-Linux users. This innovative browser based GUI incorporates expandable menu options for installation as well as advanced setup features such as authentication, logs, and the ability to view/import/export server configurations. Embedded security features such as user login and password authentication are also included.

Security and manageability

Data management information is protected through the SCS’s standard encryption tools such as Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Socket Layer (SSL). Access by authorized users is assured via authentication schemes such as RADIUS, TACACS+, LDAP, Kerberos, NIS and RSA Security’s SecurID tokens. The SCS also supports network port bonding for added protection. Using a 256K FIFO audit trial per device port, diagnostics can easily be performed should an attached device fail; this allows for faster problem resolution and maximizes network uptime. Advanced features such as simple integration with Thinklogical’s PDU 4/4, which addresses remote access of power management, and a 32-bit CardBus for modem and other peripheral access, meet the requirements of the most demanding system and network applications.

Available in 8-, 16-, 32-, and 48- port models that fit in 1U rack space, the SCS provides the layer of security, management, and control over widespread infrastructures that users require.
