What is SRENA?

SRENA, Secure Remote Emergency Network Administration, is a standard for new class of products specifically designed to monitor and manage servers and intelligent devices both locally (through TCP/IP) and remotely out of network, also known as out of band management (OBM). If your network were a building SRENA would be the building code which requires your building (network) to have a smoke detector, fire alarm, fire-escape and some fire prevention and fire fighting tools.

OutPost Sentinel is the leader in SRENA technology and has designed the first suite of products exclusively tailored to provide secure remote emergency network access through a comprehensive set of administration, management and diagnostic tools.

In-band Network Access -

There are primarily two ways to manage a network: in-band network management and out-of-band management (OBM). In-band is managing locally through the network itself, using a telnet connection to a router or by using SNMP-based tools (such as HP’s Open View). In-band is the most common way to manage a network. However, for large or business-critical networks, in-band network management alone is not enough. If the network is down, you cannot use the network to reach the affected devices and resolve the problem. You need an alternate or secondary access path to get around the problem or to access the source of the problem—that is essentially what Out-of-Band Management (OBM) provides.

Out-of-Band Management -

If there is a problem with a device such a server or a router, and traffic cannot flow through the network, you need an alternate path to reach the network nodes even when the network is down. Management using independent dedicated channels is called OBM.
