Introduction for Authorized Users > Types of Managed Devices

Types of Managed Devices
The connected device can be one of the following types:
A service processor.
A server or other type of device that does not have a service processor but that provides access to its command line through a dedicated Ethernet port
This type of device includes servers that redirect their serial console output to dedicated Ethernet ports (which provide a type of access generally referred to as serial over LAN or SoL).
A device with a dedicated Ethernet port that supports management access via Telnet, SSH, SNMP, or the OnBoard's native IP access capability
Note: The term “device” is used in this guide when referring to a service processor, server, or other connected device, unless the type of device must be clearly stated in the context.
