Avocent KVM With HP Adapters
Jul 21, 2009
I bouth a new Avocent DSR2161 KVMovIP Switchs and I'm having a little problem. Since I know Dell/HP/Avocent (and maybe some other else) use the same type of hardware to make this KVM Switchs, including the local System (OSCAR).
With this switch I bouth 16 KVM CAT5 PS/2 Adapters from HP.
When I connect them to the KVM Switch it shows a Green Light that means there is a cable in there but the orange light (I think it's the "act" light is turned off. In OSCAR no adapters appear.
When I plug in/out a adapter using a firmware v3 (latest Firmware from Avocent) it says (in debug mode):
rcmProcessRipPortStatusMsg: port 7
rcmRequestRipTableEntry: port 7, chan 1
rcmProcessRipTableMsg: old packet type!
RIP STATUS(RipTable) port:7 chan:1 In0 On1 Rip1 UA1 Up0 STS=71
rcmProcessRipTableMsg: port 7, chan 1, swChannels 0
rcmProcessRipTableMsg: ERROR RIP not found!

i am managing my network with a linux box (iptables, vlans) + layer2 managed switch instead of layer3 switch.
On my linux server, a regular onboard network card is working just fine but i am planning to upgrade it to better one.
What would you recommend me?
* Intel Pro/1000 PT Gigabit EXPI9404PTL Quad Ethernet
* RB/4g 4 port 10/100/1000 Mbit PCI Ethernet (Mikrotik)
or any other?
I would like to build my own firewall/gateway server instead of paying thousands of dollars to cisco asa, juniper or etc.

We have a few CPanel servers, all with multiple NIC's. (2 Each)
We want to setup Eth0 to be the managment interface (ie. 72.2.24.x)
We want to setup Eth1 to be the Shared / Exclusive IP Nic (ie. 67.69.141.x)
Here is the issue, Eth1 is on a totally different Vlan than Eth0.. thus, isolating DDOS attacks, and any other type of traffic concerns for managment.. But, it also has a different G/W as Eth0.

Is there another solution for remote access to the Avocent DS1800?
DSView costs too much =)

We are shopping for some good KVMoIP switches.
Below is a must! Have to be RELIABLE! (I've had bad experiences with Raritan.)
Price; as cheap as we can get!
16 ports minimum (if price-per-port is good, 32 ports would be fine.)
Virtual Media support (we do a lot of firmware upgrades.)
We are looking at the Avocent DSR2020, but it is not cheap. The switch itself can be found for around $3,750-$4,200.
Since I've read much here about Lantronix, have anyone had good experiences with SLC series? The SLC16 unit is WAY cheaper than the Avocent DSR unit. It can be had for like half the price. Plus it will come with dual PSU.
I take the dongle for both is about the same. $100 a pop.
Or are there any other KVMoIP companies we should be looking at? Thanks for your advices.
