Value-added Management

Realtek GbE NIC with DASH capabilities

Built with a Realtek GbE NIC with DASH capabilities can utilize the easy-to-use Realtek Remote Management Console that employs DASH standards to manage and monitor client devices. Use of this in-band and out-of-band management allows IT admins the ability to access the device whether it is powered on or off, over the network. The DASH based tool can handle such tasks:

• Power state settings (on, off, restart, hibernate, or sleep)
• View hardware, firmware or BIOS versions
• Retrieve system health status
•  
• USB device and image files redirection
• Boot device selection
• View event logs
• Apply updates and security patches
• Text console redirection
• Software KVM
