OOB
(Out-of-Band)
Out-of-Band (OOB) refers to communication or operations that occur outside the primary data channel. It is often used for management, monitoring, or security purposes, such as sending alerts or performing updates.
OOB management is critical in network administration, allowing administrators to access and control devices even when the primary network is down. It is also used in authentication, where OOB methods like SMS or email provide an additional layer of security.
