For the benefit of the list, one of the other great things about the RLM is that it will often grab console logging in the event of a low-level hardware event, and write it to the 'system log' , events, or both.
More detail below. 'system log' is the command I'm talking about, from the RLM console (not system console)

That RLM gets an IP address/Netmask/DefGW/Mailhost for
IP info.
You then "ssh naroot@IP_of_RLM"
Now, you can do things like: cycle power on the head - just like turning the power
switch at the head.
switch to the console - just like using a serial
session, but over IP.
No more setting up the term servers, this give much
better control....
Thanks, everyone who replied! I can now access the RLM. The thing already had IP, but I didn't know about logging in as "naroot". Fixed now, and indeed, it offers more control than just a serial console, and it's faster.
