Hello-
I am looking for a rackmount server that will take care of both
incoming ISDN data calls and can connect my serial consoles to my LAN
via telnet or ssh. Basically I need a access/console server with 2 or
more ISDN BRI ports with modems, 6 or more async serial ports for
serial consoles, and ethernet. I want to be able to accept two calls
on each ISDN line at 64k/56k a piece with PPP and allocate dynamic IPs
per call, and I want to connect each of my server's serial consoles to
a serial port and be able to telnet to it with its specific TCP/IP port
or a using a rotary. I've been looking at several servers so far-
Livingston Portmaster 3 and Cisco 2503, but I am really not sure if
they will do what I want (sort of new to this stuff). I am probably
looking at buying used hardware, and I don't want to spend more than
$250 (ebay perhaps). Any help is greatly appreciated.
