semi-relevant: router/server serial console access aggregator

[Sanjay Dani <sanjay () professionals com>]

Hi,

I am looking for recommendations on a small "footprint"
(1U) device that is directly accessible via ethernet/IP
and dial-in. It will be hosted in a remote data center
to access the consoles of several cisco routers and
UNIX servers remotely.

I have a feeling somebody has built a cheap and reliable
linux/bsd/unix based device with sshd, ethernet port and
8 or 16 serial ports.

Please send your replies privately. I will post a summary
if there is interest.

Thanks.
