I had cause at short notice to have to provide a solution for a client with a VMware infrastructure who needed to present USB license dongles to a virtual machine after a successful P2V migration. The software company providing the dongles asked if passthrough was available but in the particular release of ESXi this was no possible at short notice.
Once again the DIGI usbanywhere device can into its own and we dispatched a unit to site and when it arrived used the esxi host dvd drive to present the software to the virtual machine. After installing the software autodetected the device and we were able to test the operation of the usb hub by attaching a usb stick and the security dongle to it.
So it took longer to get the device out of the packaging and putting the software cd in the server took longer than provisioning the device and solving the problem. Great for the client and great for remote work. Highly recommended
