My company has used Avocent ACS (Advanced Console Server) to do network devices’ console management for many years already. I were using 4000, 5000 and 6000 serie, and now 8000 series is coming to refresh some old ones.
Emerson (EMR) acquired infrastructure management specialist Avocent Corporation (AVCT) for $1.2 billion on Oct 2009. Since then Emerson combined its Aperture and new Avocent businesses as a new division focused on helping data center customers better manage their infrastructure. Now it is part of Vertiv which launched as standalone business. The Vertiv’s Trellis DCIM platform was the first to use real-time data to enhance data center management and has been recognized as a leader in every DCIM Magic Quadrant published by Gartner.
Interesting thing is I even could not find Avocent product from Vertiv’s product page. Totally there are 13 products under IT management category, but ACS product line is not there. I managed to google and find one link which shows more this product at this link: https://www.vertivco.com/en-us/products-catalog/monitoring-control-and-management/it-management/avocent-acs-8000-serial-consoles/

“The Avocent® ACS 8000 advanced console server series continues the long running success story with a new, ground-up platform of innovation, integrating important new connectivity features such as gigabit fiber, USB and sensors. IT professionals and network operations center (NOC) personnel can now harness these new capabilities to further enable them to perform secure, remote data center management and out-of-band management of IT assets from anywhere in the world. Featuring a dual-core ARM processor architecture with expanded memory capabilities, the updated Linux operating system and DSView™ management software, provides the Avocent® ACS 8000 optimal performance, security, reliability for a complete out-of-band management solution.” – from ACS 8000’s data sheet brochure.
Here are some basic configuration steps I did.
1. Console in device to configure static ip and gateway
Using one of the supplied RJ-45 console
adaptors, connect a terminal or
workstation to the Console port. The
console system is configured using a
terminal or terminal emulator with session
settings of: 9600, 8, N and 1, with no
flow control.
Log in to the console system as admin,
with the default password avocent. At the
command prompt, enter wiz to view the
current IP configuration.

- Thank you for using the cli -
Some basic and useful keys are:
- tab (once/twice) - shows the next possible commands/option(s)
- up/down arrow - navigates up/down in the command history
- ls - shows sub-nodes
- show - shows available configuration in the node
- cntrl e - gets the current parameter value for editting
Other hints:
- Use backslash '\' to escape spaces, '\' and other control
characters when assigning values to parameters.

- cntrl e - gets the current parameter value for editting
Other hints:
- Use backslash '\' to escape spaces, '\' and other control
characters when assigning values to parameters.
