Overview of the LX Series
The LX Series is a secure standalone communication server that is
designed for applications requiring secure console or serial port
management. The LX Series provides the most secure and robust feature
set to meet your remote console management and terminal server needs.
The LX Series includes the most comprehensive security features, such as
per port access protection, RADIUS, Secure Shell v2.0, PPP PAP/CHAP,
PPP dial-back, on-board database, menus, and others.
The LX Series console management solution enables centrally located or
remote personnel to connect to the console or craft ports of any network
element or server. This serial connection allows administrators to manage
and configure the remote network devices and servers, as well as perform
software upgrades as if attached locally.
The LX Series also provides various port densities of RS-232 DTE RJ45
Serial ports, as well as V.90/K56 flex Internal Modem options. Currently,
the LX hardware provides port densities of 8, 16, 32, and 48 ports, plus
port 0 for local management.
