Vendor-neutral platform for multi-vendor environments

Improves infrastructure resilience and helps restore access faster after an outage

What is ZPE Systems?

ZPE Systems is the developer of the Nodegrid platform for out-of-band management (OOB), remote management, and IT infrastructure automation. Nodegrid solutions give administrators access to network devices and management infrastructure across data centers, branch offices, and edge locations.

The platform combines hardware devices, the Nodegrid OS, and centralized management tools. One of its key principles is a vendor-neutral approach, allowing it to be used in environments that include solutions from multiple vendors.

What solutions does ZPE Systems offer?

ZPE Systems develops the Nodegrid platform, which helps organizations manage IT infrastructure both locally and remotely, including when standard access through the production network is unavailable.

The main areas of Nodegrid use include:

  • Out-of-band management (OOB), providing independent access to infrastructure during an outage or loss of standard connectivity.
  • Data center infrastructure management, including the use of Nodegrid Serial Console devices.
  • Branch and edge infrastructure management with the Nodegrid Services Router family.
  • Centralized management and automation with Nodegrid Manager, ZPE Cloud, and integrations with tools used by NetOps and DevOps teams.

What are the benefits of ZPE Systems?

Nodegrid solutions help organizations maintain remote access to IT infrastructure even when the primary network is experiencing problems. Administrators can diagnose devices, manage them, and take corrective action without the need for an immediate onsite visit.

Nodegrid helps organizations to:

  • increase infrastructure resilience through an independent OOB management path,
  • reduce onsite interventions and remotely manage data centers, branch offices, and edge locations,
  • centralize the management of multi-vendor environments,
  • automate repetitive administrative and operational tasks,
  • reduce the time needed to diagnose issues and restore infrastructure after an outage.

When is OOB needed?

Out-of-band management is particularly useful when:

  • the primary network is unavailable,
  • an administrator loses standard access to a router, switch, firewall, or server,
  • an issue occurs in a remote branch office or edge location,
  • remote infrastructure diagnostics are required,
  • a device needs a remote restart or intervention outside the primary network.

Nodegrid can also integrate with power management, monitoring, and automation tools, making OOB part of a broader infrastructure management environment.

What does OOB provide in practice?

The network is down? Administrative access does not have to disappear with it.
