Tripp-Lite / Minicom: Shop by manufacturer Rack Front Access Panels for Crash Trolley.The less public IP addresses out there, the easier it is for IT to keep the lid tightly closed and avoid the horror of security breaches, just because there are so many IP addresses to look after. Security: Another big aspect of keeping IP addresses to a minimum is data security.
#MINICOM KVM UPGRADE#
Think about the time difference when the need for a firmware upgrade arises! The time spent on configuring a single IP KVM switch in order to access 32 servers remotely is much less than the time you will need to setup 32 individual iLO servers.
#MINICOM KVM INSTALL#
Ease of Operation: To install the IP KVM Switch you will only need to connect it to the servers, power up and assign to it an IP address.
#MINICOM KVM WINDOWS#
Users of iLO are also limited in their choice of browsers, as it only support IE for Windows and Firefox for Linux in comparison to IP KVM users that can use a whole range of remote clients. iLO supports up to 1280x1024 video resolution whereas an IP KVM Switch goes up to HD resolutions. To benefit from the best mouse synchronization you need the best video resolutioin support. Performance: The KVM over IP video performance is superior to the iLO performance with a better video refresh rate at reduced bandwidth.An IP KVM Switch on the other hand, centralized the remote management of up to 32 servers via a single IP address. This can dramatically increase the number of IP addresses the organization has to purchase (another hidden cost), and not all data center can meet this challenge.

IP addresses: Each server equipped with an iLO requires two unique IP addresses!one for the server and one for the iLO.This is in contrast to a KVM over IP switch that consolidates a large number of servers into one ethernet (or two, for redundancy) port. These requirements are translated into more routers and switch ports, which mean more money spent (part of the hidden cost). Ethernet Ports & Cabling: iLO requires the use of additional cabling and an additional Ethernet port at each server in order to be connected to the network.Compare this to the price per port of an IP KVM switch at $140-170 (including dongles/cable) – and you have easily saved a few thousand dollar per rack!
#MINICOM KVM LICENSE#
While the license itself can be bought from $130, the true cost of using iLO can easily total over $400 per server when you include all the hidden costs. Cost: In order to benefit from the iLO vKVM features, there is a licenses fee.
