Cyclades OnBoard Service Processor Manager

-48VDC for telco applications
Universal AC power supply for data center applications

By consolidating service processor Ethernet ports, the Cyclades OnBoard service processor manager requires only one external IP address for all connected devices. This reduces provisioning costs associated with service processors. Costs are further reduced by routing service processor traffic through the less expensive out-of-band network, eliminating the use of switch ports on the production network. With multiple Ethernet ports, the OnBoard appliance connects point-to-point with Ethernet-based service processors such as HP iLO, IPMI, Dell DRAC and IBM® RSA.

The OnBoard service processor manager delivers Secure Rack Management™ (SRM™ - patent pending) by isolating and protecting the connected service processors from the external production network. The result is efficient, rack-level management with seamless integration into the out-of-band infrastructure.

The OnBoard appliance allows enterprise-class authentication, authorization and auditing (AAA) security and encryption, and extends this functionality to all servers. Other standard features include data logging, event detection and notification, SNMP proxy, graphing and alarms for sensors and shared access to management ports.

The Cyclades OnBoard service processor manager provides an easy-to-use, consolidated interface for out-of-band management of servers from multiple vendors. It disassociates the native service processor interface for configuration, Serial over LAN (SoL) and power control. Server administrators need only learn one simple interface.

Quick Facts

  • Consolidates IP connections, user access and server health information
  • Comprehensive security systems with local and remote authentication, authorization and encryption
  • Physical separation of service processor connections from public networks allowing server access to authorized users only
  • Manage HP iLO, IPMI 1.5, Dell DRAC, IBM® RSA, blade servers and others

 



Features and Benefits

Server Management

  • Physical consolidation of service processors — Ethernet port and IP address savings, superior security
  • Strong enterprise security features (AAA, granular ACLs, data logging) — Easier compliance with internal security policies, integration with existing security systems
  • SoL, power control, hardware monitoring and alerts — Complete, full-featured remote server management from a single interface
  • SoL with data logging — Better auditing, faster troubleshooting
  • Event and alert management — Enables proactive response to server issues

Service Processor Management

  • Built-in DHCP server for dynamic IP address assignment to service processors — Simpler service processor deployment

User Interface

  • Single console for multiple service processor types — Consolidated server management regardless of the type of embedded management technologies in use
  • Embedded web interface — Intuitive interface provides a shorter learning curve and faster product deployment
  • Consistent, scriptable command line interface — Reduces human error, simplifies training, automation and integration with other management tools
  • Rich SSH device management command options — Easier automation, scripting, integration with existing management procedures
  • Integration with DSView 3 management software — Provides a single interface for management of the entire IT infrastructure
