Umm... call me dense, but aren't you using Conserver to manage these
boxes and which hosts are connected to which ports?  That's the whole
reason to have conserver.  

I do like that they are running Linux and that I can ssh into them,
but I honestly treat them mostly as dumb devices.  That don't send
breaks.  :"]

Though maybe it would be interesting to see if I can do SSH to each of
the individual ports, and whether the load on the console server
system and the CM32 is too much or not.  I bet most makers don't
expect you to be running all the ports all the time...
