Out of Band Management is defined as a physical or logical separation of user and management traffic, either to different VLANs or different physical interfaces on the server for increased security of the system. Only administrator can gain access to the management interfaces from a specific network, users of the system cannot gain access. This prevents unauthorized login from the user network to applications.
Only the ports and servers that are required for user functions are provided to the user network. Management interfaces are provided to the management network. In Out of Band Management setup, an administrator username and password is not sufficient to gain access to the system. The login attempt must also be able to access the Out of Band Management network.
When out of band management is enabled, Avaya Aura® applications run:
User services on one network interface. For example, IP phone registration, user configuration, and media traffic
Management services on another network interface. For example, administration webpages, SSH connections, and management traffic from System Manager.
