KVM for home server ? (feddit.fr)

Hi there, looking for a KVM for my home server to fix it remotely when having an important issue
because wel... My home server isn't at MY home but at my mother's home

I was looking at nanoKVM-USB which I would plug to a raspberry pi, enabling and disabling the remote app according to my need to avoid unnecessary security issues, maybe even unplug it and ask my mother to plug it when needed, what do you think of such a solution ?

Thanks !

I use NanoKVM and I'm quite happy with that. Also connected to the internal header so it can power on/off and edit BIOS.

As for security, I don't allow its IP to open up any outgoing connections.
