Explanation

Remote Desktop (RDP) allows a Windows administrator to fully control a server's GUI over the network without being physically present. IP KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse over IP) provides out-of-band remote console access at the hardware level, even before the OS loads or if the OS is unresponsive, making it extremely powerful in a datacenter. A console connection and crash cart require physical presence. Remote drive access only handles file access, not full server administration.
