A switch box appliance is adapted for controlling a network of servers. The appliance includes a network interface controller (NIC), an input/output controller coupled to the NIC and an input/output driver. The input/output controller that is controlled by the input/output drivers sends commands through the NIC over an Internet protocol network, such as a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network, to a server on the network.
