| 1212415 | 2011-06-27 02:29:00 | Can anyone recommend a decent KVM switch? I've been looking around and have seen IP based KVM switches, however you need one at each end, is there an option for a web based KVM that you can use with a browser or something similar? I have a monitor, keyboard mouse, i don't mind having to go to the servers, but it would be nice if I could access the console from my desk. TIA |

| 1212417 | 2011-06-27 02:42:00 | Thanks. I just need something for console access when remote tools are either not working or if I need to configure my router from the CLI. All my equipment is consumer level stuff apart from my mail server so some sort of KVM would be more practical. |
