Equipment/IPKVM

From London Hackspace Wiki

We scrapped the IPKVM because we've largely consolidated our workloads into a couple of well-powered systems with optional remote LOM and do not necessarily need an IPKVM to scroll through everything on a shared console.

We have loads of PS/2 ones, and 2 usb ones, one of which is used on boole

remote access =

Use ssh port forwarding, something like this:

sudo ssh -vTN \
-L localhost:443:ipkvm.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk:443 \
-L localhost:80:ipkvm.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk:80 \
-L localhost:2068:ipkvm.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk:2068 \
-L localhost:8192:ipkvm.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk:8192 \
username@boole.london.hackspace.org.uk

You need to be root to forward ports 80 & 443, you'll also need to stop any webserver that you might be running so you don't get a clash with port 80...
