How does the Belkin OmniView Remote IP Manager (IP KVM) do Hard Reboots?
Solution 1:
That KVM talks to Power Distribution Units, essentially power strips (or outright circuit breaker cabinets) with brains. The hard reboot is accomplished by dropping power from the power outlet (or circuit in the case of circuit based PDU's). You can do this with standard power supply units so long as you attach them to a power strip that supports serial shutdown commands.
