In systems management, out-of-band management (OOB), or lights-out management (LOM), is a process for accessing and managing devices and infrastructure at remote locations through a management plane separate from that of the production network. OOB allows a system administrator to monitor and manage servers and other network-attached equipment by remote control regardless of whether the machine is powered on or whether an OS is installed or functional.
