Glossary

KVM: Literally “Keyboard Video Mouse”, this term refers to technology that allows two or more computers to be controlled by one keyboard, video monitor, and mouse; some switches that use KVM technology enable sharing of other peripherals such as audio speakers, microphones, and printers.

KVM Switch: A device that allows a user to access and control multiple servers from a single console. It has at least one console port and multiple server ports.

MAC: Media Access Control. In computer networking, a MAC address is a unique identifier attached to most forms of networking equipment.

OSD: On-Screen Display, a graphical user interface that can be used to control and configure the KVM switch.

Port: An interface receptor on a server through which you can attach a device or plug in a device cable.

Primary KVM Switch: The switch that is connected to the console and is set to BANK address 00.

SSL: Secure Sockets Layer. Cryptographic protocols that provide secure communications on the Internet for such things as email and Internet banking.

Secondary KVM Switch: Any KVM switch that is daisy-chained to the primary KVM switch and is set to BANK address 01–15 (and has no console connected).

TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. Shorthand for the suite of rules defining the format devices use to communicate over the Internet.

Target Server: The server currently being accessed and controlled by the user from a local or remote console.
