Third-party hardware? (DNPG DECserver)

» close window

The Question is:

 
 
I have servers that have remote console access thru a decserver 300 via
 protocal LAT via polycenter console. I want to setup a remote console access
 for a server thru this same polycenter console interface but using telnet
 because the server and decserver
 300 are not on the same network as the one that execute polycenter console.
When connecting with " $console connect server/break=ctrl_b " to servers where
 the console use default protocal LAT , and typing " ctrl_b" , the console
 access goes to console prompt >>> with no errors ;
 
using "ctrl_b" to goto console prompt on the remote console access that use
 TELNET give a fatal error :

I have setup a remote console of my Alpha Ds20e thrue a Decserver 300 port 1  ;
 this port 1 is directly connected to the console port of my DS20e.
 
 


The Answer is :

 
  The DECserver terminal server widgets are now supported by the Digital
  Network Products Group (www.dnpg.com), and not by Compaq.
 
  A (decade-old) DECserver 300 terminal server device is also an obvious
  candidate for replacement with a supported widget.
