Features and Benefits
Avocent’s DSR combines analog and digital technology to provide flexible,
centralized control of data center servers. This solution provides enterprise
customers with a significant reduction of cable volume, secure remote access
and flexible server management from anywhere at anytime.
The DSR consists of a rack mountable KVM switch configurable for analog or
digital connectivity. Each DSR model provides enhanced video quality of up to
1280 x 1024 for digital users and 1600 x 1280 for the analog user.
The DSR works over standard LAN connections. Users can access servers
across a 100BaseT Ethernet connection or directly through a local port on the
DSR for digital KVM and administration, depending on the model selected. The
IP-based DSR appliance gives you flexible server management control from
anywhere in the world.
Reduce cable bulk
With server densities ever increasing, cable bulk remains one of the major
concerns of every network administrator. The DSR significantly relieves KVM
cable volume in the rack by utilizing the innovative DSRIQ module and single
CAT 5 cabling. This allows you higher server density while providing greater
airflow and cooling capacity. The DSRIQ module is powered directly from the
server and provides Keep-alive functionality whether or not the DSR unit is
powered up.
Access the DSR via network connection
No special software or drivers are required on the attached, or Host, computers.
Users access the DSR unit and all attached systems via Ethernet from a PC
running the DSView application. This software resides on the user PC. User
PCs can be located anywhere a valid network connection exists. The DSR unit
can be configured on a separate network from your data network, allowing
access to your servers even if your applications network is down.
DSView provides simple point and click access to any server
When a user connects, the DSView application will display a listing of all
computers and serial devices to which the user has permission to access. When
a user selects a computer from the list, the video of the selected computer is
displayed in the program window. Multiple servers can be accessed by one user.
Each additional computer’s video will appear in a separate program window.

DSAdmin and DSAuthentication Service create and
manage user permissions with DES encrypted security
An administrator describes the configuration of computers attached to the DSR
using an application called DSAdmin. Once the topology is described, the
administrator then establishes which computers a user has permission to
access. Usernames and passwords are derived from Windows NT, eliminating
the need for redundant user databases. Once the topology is established, the
DSAuthentication Service software manages the system’s user permissioning.
DSView polls the server for access permissions on power-up and every time a
switch is initiated for the most current permissions possible. A refresh is also
available for immediate updates to a user’s access profile. In addition to the
permissioning function, the DSAuthentication Service also stores pertinent
information about attached devices in a database. Room location, rack location
and computer type can all be stored for quick reference.
