Deploy, Manage and Remediate with Smart OOB by Opengear

In his Tech Field Day session, Daniel Cecalacean, Senior Product Manager, discussed the Lighthouse Software Solution. Providing one source of truth, centralized provisioning and scalable out of band, his session covered the capabilities of Lighthouse.

He also highlighted the latest technical enhancement of Lighthouse – a robust, standards-based management fabric for IP-based connectivity. The RMF (Routed Management Fabric) allows engineers to leverage Opengear’s Network Resilience Platform to deliver the best experience on the First Day. Leading to the formation of a network source of truth, is creates the foundation for automation and troubleshooting.

Daniel Cecalacean discusses Opengear’s evolution beyond its traditional out-of-band role. Opengear has been serving customers in the out-of-band space for two decades, offering innovative solutions like True Failover to cellular and smart auto band. However, the company aims to go beyond being an insurance policy and expand its capabilities to assist in everyday scenarios. To achieve this, Opengear introduces RMF, a standard-based management fabric that enables IP-based connectivity. RMF serves as a network overlay, providing routed IP access in addition to Opengear’s existing serial functionality. This enhancement allows Opengear to step outside its core competency and offer more comprehensive solutions.
