Thanks for starting this discussion Eric. We're just starting to look at 
upgrading our oob console network and wondering how to provide access from LAN 
based application monitoring platforms. We're currently looking at installing a 
VPN appliance  between our production network and the "oob network".

Subject: Securing OOB

Hello,

It seems that the current practice is to use a DSL line, as opposed to a modem, 
for accessing an OOB a console server at a remote colo.  From a security 
standpoint, what do people generally do - trust the console server, repurpose 
an old linksys box from my house or put in a full firewall?  

Eric :)
