Abstract

Monitoring and access control systems for network communication equipment of a network facility. A login device, to receive a credential of a user, is associated with a piece of network communication equipment arrangeable in a network facility. A monitor device is associated with the piece of network communication equipment to receive data associated with an access of the piece of network communication equipment. And, the data associated with the access of the piece of network communication equipment is auditable by a party to provide accountability of services performed on the piece of network communication equipment arrangeable in the network facility. A security device arranged with the piece of network communication equipment may un-lock or lock a portion of the piece of network communication equipment based at least in part on the credential received from the user.
