A Complete Top-of-Rack Management Solution
An IOLAN SCR Console Server at every IT location, used in combination with our PerleVIEW deployed in the cloud or on-premise, provides secure remote device access and management through a single application. This powerful monitoring and management tool offers a robust suite of intuitive automation tools that empower administrators to seamlessly scale deployments, edit configurations, update firmware, monitor system health, schedule tasks, and automate routine actions – all from the comfort of your preferred location and device. Perle Network Assist is also an excellent option for busy IT managers who want a free Windows-based desktop application to efficiently configure, monitor, and manage Perle hardware solutions.
Optional Global Cellular Integration
Models with integrated Cellular protect your data center and branch office out-of-band management infrastructure against wired LAN failure. It can also transmit serial data or establish a direct serial-to-serial peer connection over cellular networks. This is ideal when devices are located where hardwired Ethernet connections are not available but cellular networks, with their affordable data packages, are accessible.
Built-in Perle-ARMOR security shield
Perle-ARMOR is a robust set of standards-based security features integrated into every IOLAN SCR Console Server. Perle is committed to the standards and regulations that industries require for device security, identity, and data privacy.
- Secure Boot: By ensuring that the IOLAN SCR boots using only trusted software user can have confidence that malware and rootkits cannot compromise the integrity or security of the device. It provides a robust defense against a variety of threats, supports regulatory compliance, and maintains device integrity.
- Protect against unauthorized access: Two-factor authentication (2FA), IEEE 802.1x, and support for AAA protocols like TACACS+, Radius with RADSec, and LDAP enable integration with enterprise-grade systems.
- Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 provides hardware-based encryption, secure key storage, platform integrity, and compliance with security regulations.
- Secure Internet Transmissions: The IOLAN SCR ensures the integrity of data flowing across the network by only accepting signed and encrypted files through secured tunnels.
- Secure Remote Access: Create a secure tunnel using OpenVPN or IPSec to ensure your confidential data is protected and secure
- The built-in firewall offers intuitive policies to protect inside networks from unauthorized access. The firewall also allows inside networks to be separated from each other. If there are network resources that need to be available to an outside user, such as a web or FTP server, these resources can be placed on a separate network behind the firewall in a demilitarized zone (DMZ).
- Enable or disable physical ports and specific protocols to limit the attack surface, control the types of traffic that can flow through your network, reduce congestion, and meet regulatory requirements.
- FIPS 140-2 Software version: for compliance with US and Canadian Federal Government regulations for protecting sensitive information.

Multiple firmware versions can be saved on the unit. This allows the customer to change between older and newer firmware versions without the need to download.
Multiple configuration files can be stored on the unit., This allows the customer to easily switch between older and newer configurations during testing or production deployments.
Automatic check for software updates available over FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, and TFTP
LLDP-Link Layer Discovery Protocol, as per IEEE 802.1AB, is a neighbor discovery protocol that is used for network devices to advertise information about themselves to other devices on the network. This protocol runs over the data-link layer, which allows two systems running different network layer protocols to learn about each other via TLVs (Type-Length-Value).
RESTful API uses HTTP requests to access and use IOLAN SCR x86 statistics and configuration data. Any of the CLI commands can be executed through a RESTful API script that can be controlled externally from a server.
Connectivity Watchdog can instruct the IOLAN SCR x86 to take different actions (i.e. reboot) if the network connectivity to a pre-define IP address is lost. This is helpful for situations when the IOLAN SCR x86 is deployed on remote locations hard to service if the network connectivity is lost.
Automatic DNS Update: Utilize DHCP Opt 81 to set IOLAN domain name for easy name management and with Dynamic DNS support, users on the Internet can access the device server by name without having to know its IP address. See Automatic DNS update support for details
