Whether you are local or remote, the CCM Console Manager and AVWorks™ management software give you the tools to take command of your data center. Blending seamlessly into your existing network, the CCM may be accessed using AVWorks, which includes a cross-platform Telnet and SSH client. The CCM is equally compatible with industry standard Telnet and SSH clients. To permit access to existing user accounts, the CCM is compatible with industry standard RADIUS servers. Onboard user accounts can also be established for ease of management. The CCM’s SNMP MIB2 and enterprise traps integrate directly with existing SNMP management systems allowing for proactive measures.

With the CCM Console Manager you can:

• Be Organized - AVWorks™ management software offers search, sort, and folder options that enable you to organize devices for quick and secure access
• Tighten Security - An onboard SSH v2 server offers secure sessions and tunneling to permit secure console access over public networks
• Manage Users - Four RADIUS and local authentication modes allow you to take advantage of existing user accounts or quickly establish CCM-based accounts. Multiple permission levels allow you to grant or restrict access to specific operations and business critical devices
• Be Proactive - Use SNMP traps to indicate events such as detection of particular text strings or failed authentication. Never miss an important console message using the CCM’s offline history buffers
• Pull It All Together - AVWorks management software and the Equinox CCM combine with Avocent's KVM over IP switches and intelligent power controllers to become the industry's most comprehensive data center management solution
