Chapter 1: Product Overview

Features and Benefits

The Avocent DSR™1021 switch combines analog and digital technology to

provide flexible, centralized control of data center servers and facilitate the

OA&M (operations, activation and maintenance) of remote branch offices

where trained operators may be unavailable. This solution provides enterprise

customers with a significant reduction of cable volume, secure remote access

and flexible server management from anywhere at anytime.

The DSR1021 switch is a rack mountable keyboard, video and mouse (KVM)

switch configurable for analog (local) or digital (remote) connectivity. The

DSR1021 switch has ports for connecting servers and serial devices via DSRIQ

modules. A video resolution of 1280 x 1024 is supported for remote users of

the DSR switching system. Enhanced video quality of up to 1600 x 1280 is

available for the local user via the keyboard, video and mouse ports.

The DSR1021 switch includes an SPC, LAN and MODEM port. The SPC port

may be used to connect an SPC power control device to the DSR1021 switch.

An SPC device is an 8- or 16-outlet device that can be used to control the power

state of any attached servers or serial devices using the DSView®software

residing on the user PC. The LAN port is used to establish an Ethernet

connection to the switch. The MODEM port may be used by remote users to

access the switch using a dial-up connection when an Ethernet connection is

not available.

The DSR1021 switch works over standard LAN connections. Users can access

servers or serial devices using:

•A 100BaseT Ethernet connection

•A V.34, V.90 or V.92-compatible modem for remote KVM access

and administration

•The local port

The IP-based DSR1021 switch gives you flexible server management control

from anywhere in the world.

Reduce cable bulk

With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains one of

the major concerns of every network Administrator. The DSR1021 switch

significantly reduces KVM cable volume in the rack by utilizing the innovative

DSRIQ module and single, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)

CAT 5 cabling. This allows a higher server density while providing greater

airflow and cooling capacity.

4DSR Installer/User Guide

The DSRIQ module is powered directly from the server and provides Keep

Alive functionality when the DSR1021 switch is not powered up.

The DSRIQ-SRL (serial) module is a DCE device that provides the primary

interface between a serial device and a DSR1021 switch. It provides VT100

terminal emulation, break suppression and port history in a compact,

convenient module.

Access the DSR1021 switch via network connection

No special software or drivers are required on the attached, or host, computers.

Users access the DSR1021 switch and all attached systems via Ethernet or

using a V.34, V.90 or V.92 modem from a PC running the DSView software

application residing on the user PC. User PCs can be located anywhere a

valid network connection exists. The DSR1021 switch can be configured on

a separate network from your data network, allowing access to your servers

even if your applications network is down.

Simple point and click access to any server

When a user activates DSView software, it will display a listing of all computers

and serial devices to which the user has access permission. When a user selects

a server from the list, the video of the selected server is displayed in a Video

Viewer window. Multiple servers can be accessed by one user. Each additional

computer’s video will appear in a separate program window.

Create and manage user permissions with DES

encrypted security

An Administrator describes the configuration of computers attached to the

DSR1021 switch using the DSAdmin management application. Once the

topology is described, the Administrator then establishes which computers a

user has permission to access. Usernames and passwords are derived from

Windows NT®, Windows®2000 or Windows XP, eliminating the need for

redundant user databases. Once the topology is established, the DSAuth

Server software manages the system’s user permissioning. The DSView

software polls the server running DSAuth Server software for access

permissions on power up and every time a switch is initiated for the most

current permissions possible. A refresh is also available for immediate

updates to a user’s access profile. In addition to the permissioning function,

the DSAuth Server software also stores pertinent information about attached

devices in a database. Room location, rack location and server type can all

be stored for quick reference.
