iDRAC is a separate BMC chip which integrates on the motherboard, and provides users to control a server remotely. You could build a similar feature with piKVM, diy:

• Connect the video cable.
• Integrate circuit to motherboard power supply

With serial over lan, you can get serial console remotely for troubleshooting purposes.
