We use Avocent switches, they work as advertised. Not cheap and a bit
tricky in conjunction their authentication server. AFAIK Avocent is used
as OEM by a number of other brands like Dell.

        Subject: [THIN] KVM over IP
        
        
        Thin List,
         
        We are moving some servers to a different building to keep
backups in a separate building as well as some redundant machines for
disaster purposes.  
         
        I think a KVM over IP would be useful for console access without
having to go across campus.  
         
        We will need to have at least 2 administrators access the
servers at the same time.
         
        What brands/models do you recommend and why.
         
        I have looked at the specs for the Dominion KX216 switch.  
         
        Any comments would be helpful.
         
        Thank you,
        Keith Sirmons
