mosly java applets, you point Internet Explorer to the given ip address
and port, load some java applet and you're in.
to do so - you need software, afaik at least some do require'IE - so you
need MS windows license. hardware - you need a computer to install it.
you enjoy full system console in the browser, remote CD mounting (you
can mount your PC's cdrom or iso images - simulating inserted cd on the
server), power on and off. there was only single problem with some IBM
blade servers (they do have single user access to one box of blades) -
should disable frame buffer when booting to install debian, tried with
sarge. this was about year ago.
Some HP servers do have something called ILO2, which can be same thing
integrated, but on the single server and unlocked with a separately
purchased key (there is 30 or 60 day trial). i've got 3-4 of them, tried
with trial key, no problems at all with current stable debian (etch).
i've seen and used several more times other different KVM's, both
integrated and standalone, almost the same. some minor mouse and video
problems, but overall - more than enough to install the server up to the
point you can log on with remote console not the KVM. Forget about using
the KVM as a replacement for the normal console access.
sorry, i'm feeling little dizzy and my poor english is right now really
miserable.
