Secure Remote Management

Demonstration Videos

Secure Remote Management is patented technology for access to and management of remote network devices. Used by network administrators for secure management access to network devices, SRM provides a back-up communication path, encrypted management traffic, and centralized access control.  >> learn more

INTRODUCTION:  The introductory video describes the network environment used in the demonstration. Secure Remote Management technology is introduced and key concepts are reviewed.  This demo uses the P2 Model, which is a 1U form factor appliance. Engedi has also developed a P3 Model that is a small form factor device that includes the capability to use cellular for the Out-of-Band communication.

Introductory Video

PART 1:  This first part of the demonstration is intended to give you a feel for the User Interface and command structure of the SRM appliance. We show you how to set-up an access account using the Command Line Interface (CLI) and show you how the SRMa controls access to managed devices.

Part 1

PART 2:  illustrates the firewall capabilities of the SRMa. We show you how the SRMa controls access to the management services such as terminal protocols, logging, and authentication services via the SRMa firewall.

Part 2

PART 3:  demonstrates administrator accounting, authentication, and authorization, and illustrates how the SRMa supports centralized authentication of the managed devices.  The SRMa is designed to permit all network administrators to be authenticated centrally, rather than permitting direct telnet access to the SRMa or managed devices.  This is a key security feature of the SRMa and one that differentiates the SRMa from the design of many competing products.

Part 3

PART 4:  demonstrates use of the back-up Out-of-Band communication path by the SRMa™.   The SRMa model in this video uses a plain old telephone system(POTS) line as back-up.  Later models of the SRMa work with a cellular Out-of-Band back-up.

Part 4

PART 5:  provides a brief look at the Graphical User Interface, or GUI, of the SRMa.  The GUI interface provides the same control as does the CLI, and is a potential interface choice for a user if he or she prefers it over the CLI.

Part 5

CLOSING SUMMARY:  This last video reviews the capabilities of Secure Remote Management technology.  It includes a listing of key features.
