Greetings list,
We are exploring standardizing our Out Of Band options across our network and
various off-net locations and the question was brought up "What about carrier
hotels? What constraints might present themselves at those locations?"
Assuming each hotel we are located in can provide
Provided you can get a cell signal, we’ve been very happy with Opengear boxes.
We’d been using their ACM5508 which is eight serial ports, two Ethernet, cell.
It runs linux, you can ssh into it, do fancy things like keep the cell side
down and use text messages to bring it up if you need to get
+1 for OpenGear + LTE / cell.
Obviously POTS works and is available in any carrier hotel and not insanely
expensive.
Also, lots (not all) colocation providers will give you very cheap ethernet
OOB. (E.g. Our colo gives you GigE for the cost of the xconn + 2 Mbps 95/5
free.) I would ask before

So my inquiry is... What does the list find to be a reasonably priced yet
reliable solution in carrier hotels for OOB? Or is that contradictory :)
I use a basic 3G/GSM broadband router (Huawai, year 2007, 80 USD or so)

allows direct access to most management IPs as well as console ports
