GOAL:-console server to usbconsole of multiple Aruba switches
I want to make a console server, but because these devices are expensivehttps://www.get-console.com/shop/https://www.digi.com/products/networking/infrastructure-management/usb-connectivity/usb-over-ip/anywhereusb
?
1. anyone ever try to use Raspberry pi connected to USB Hub and make it as console server
That usb hub connected to multiple switches
If admin want to connect to multiple switches at once, then just ssh to raspberry and connect to different com port

You can try this
https://github.com/Pack3tL0ss/ConsolePi
dev has provided a purpose built front end, which hides the scripts and you can expand your pi with usb extensions to get more density to get over the pi usb limit.
I use this solution in my lab... works great!
