Secure Out-of-Band Administrative Access
EtherGap separates administrative control from protected network paths, allowing authorized operators to manage isolation state through a dedicated out-of-band access path.
Separate Control From Protected Connectivity
Traditional remote administration often depends on the same logical network paths it is responsible for protecting. EtherGap is designed around a different principle: administrative access should remain separate from the protected LAN, WAN, and isolated network segments.
By maintaining an independent administrative path, EtherGap can be monitored and controlled without requiring direct exposure of protected systems to external connectivity.
Designed For Authorized Remote Operation
Secure out-of-band access allows approved operators to view system status, confirm isolation state, and perform controlled open or close operations without collapsing the security boundary EtherGap is designed to enforce.
- Dedicated administrative path separate from protected network traffic
- Remote console visibility into system state and isolation status
- Operator control without direct exposure of protected network segments
- Support for secure maintenance, emergency access, and high-assurance operations
Operational Visibility Without Network Exposure
EtherGap provides administrators with the ability to confirm operational state while preserving the core security model: physical-layer isolation remains the primary control, and administrative access is treated as a separate management function rather than part of the protected data path.
