Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de 8 months agoI have IPMI and web interfaces for most gear, I just don’t want to have to carry a laptop in every-time I need to tinker.
I also have a bunch of AV switchgear and it would be handy to adapt a multiviewer to one of the VGA ports for monitoring that side of things too.

If you’re comfortable with it, an analog (non-networked) kvm switch can have its button connected to a single input Pikvm. You visit the PiKVM’s webpage, hit a button and you’re now connected to a different machine.
If you have a raspberry pi 1 or 2, this isn’t very expensive.
