Serviced Systems You Can Monitor and Manage

Serviced systems can be any device that meets the following requirements:

• Provides ASCII data over an RS-232C or compatible line
• Has an EIA console port
• Supports XON/XOFF and I/O buffering

Examples of these devices include the following:

• VAX computer systems
• DECsystem computers
• Workstations
• Networking hardware
• Alpha servers and stations
• HP Integrity servers
• Any devices meeting these requirements available from other vendors

Alternatively, the serviced system may be a software application that runs on the Console Manager host and interfaces with a pseudo-terminal device.
