Hi all,
I'm looking to build out a management network in our server room (scale: no more than 13 racks of gear). I'm curious what others are doing for their OOB and management networks.
I've been evaluating purchasing some switches to be dedicated for this purpose, maybe Catalyst 1000's or even the Cisco Small Business lineup (SG series).
What devices do you land into your management network/switches? Do all iDRAC, iLO and IPMI connections get landed into this network directly? And all of your switch/router Mgmt ethernet ports?
What types of routers do folks like for this purpose? I'm looking at a few options but considering something that has LTE or 5G Cellular failover capability. Maybe a PepLink device which we've used in the past for cellular failover.
Greatly appreciate any advice and insight on management networks!
Thanks
