Secure remote access to critical infrastructure
Out-of-band management (OOBM)
You’re in a remote area—for example, at a wind farm, an oil rig, or a data center in a remote corner of the country. Suddenly, you receive a notification that the router is no longer accessible via the internet. What do you do now?
Out-of-band management (OoBM) is your lifeline: a secure, alternative method of accessing an IT network infrastructure. You can manage connected devices and IT resources without using your LAN. Out-of-band management eliminates the need for costly on-site visits.
Benefits
Improved performance, security, and reliability for your network
- Fast and efficient incident resolution
- Remote Management
Ideal for
Out-of-band network management is ideal for large enterprises with multiple locations. It is also suitable for organizations with remote sites, such as off-site data centers, oil platforms, and wind farms. We often see OOBM solutions used in:
- Telecommunications (Telcos)
- Internet service providers (ISPs)
- Data Centers
- Logistics
- Transportation
Access to Your Network in the Event of a Network Outage
OOBM takes place via a separate channel, outside the network. (Hence the name “Out-of-band”). It ensures that you always have access to your IT network. This is essential in the event of network outages, failed updates, power outages, and incident management. OOBM is often offered in combination with a remote management system (RMS) to monitor your network.

Maximizing Uptime
During a system or network outage, a console server gives your administrators access—from any location, at any time, and on any platform. Out-of-band network management offers the same capabilities as a local direct connection. Administrators can remotely reconfigure, reboot, and reimage your network. Since they don’t have to travel, they can get to work right away. This helps you maximize your uptime.
How do you use OOBM?
You can access the Command Line Interface (CLI) via Out-of-Band Management. This allows you, for example, to modify configurations or roll back the firmware to a previous version, provided the device supports this feature.
