Cybersecurity

...while Lazyness surely is an added bonus,you still do not understand the purpose of IP KVM/BMC for anyone beyond a lazy homenet enthusiast (which is fair enough,but don't critisise people for stuff then).

BMC/KVM is must when it comes to professional deployments - for even a small DC or most professional settings anything else is unfeasible. And sadly in these settings at some point you will need some point of internet access (Which in most cased a VPN will do fine unless you are customer facing). And no, your solution via jump host is not a good idea - it simply adds a single point of failure that caused a false sense of security (great now you have only one device you need to get into and behind that it's open field). Besides it's highly unfeasible for a multiuser enviroment.

Proper Zero Trust, proper firewalling/IDS/IDM proper network segmenation AND proper device security are key.

Tbh, I am not surprised Gl.i was hit so hard here - they chucked out a LOT of new KVM devices recently that it was somewhat likely they had issues - which is a shame because some of their devices have some unique selling points. Meanwhile I am more surprised that nanoKVM came back with only one issue - their traffic patterns are a major headache still.
