Re: ethernet to serial converters with ACLs

Avocent / Cyclades boxes have ACL capability (they run Linux) and can
be used with EV-DO/GSM modems. They may not be the lowest cost
solution, but there is a central management system and a wide range of
serial interface units from single port to at least 32 ports.

Can anyone recommend a cheap Ethernet to Serial (RS232/422/485)
converter with functionality like the Lantronix boxes .. except one

supports access lists (nothing complicated .. maybe a list of 5

for
a rack.

We use SENA PS110 boxes (

very well, have various ACL features (dunno if it supports 5 named IP
or >not), and other configurables.

On a similar topic, any good solutions for out-of-band serial
console/Ethernet solutions that use EV-DO/GSM wireless Internet?
