7.6.6 Customization

The Customization dialog box is arranged in four major sections: Login Failures; Working Mode; I/O; and untitled miscellaneous functions at the bottom. The functions of each of the Customization items are described in the sections that follow.

Login Failures

Allowed: sets the number of consecutive failed login attempts that are permitted from a remote computer.

Timeout: sets the amount of time a remote computer must wait before attempting to login again after it has exceeded the number of allowed failures.

Working Mode

If Stealth Mode is enabled, the NetDirector Console KVM Switch with

IP Access cannot be pinged.

To permit browser access to the KVM switch, click the Enable Browser checkbox. If browser access is not enabled, users will not be able to log into the unit via their browsers.

Note: Before you disable browser access, you will need to download the API versions of the Windows and Java Clients from the IP Home Page. (See section 8.2 for details) The only way to access the API versions is to access the KVM switch via a browser.

If Multiuser Operation is enabled, up to 32 users can simultaneously access the KVM switch.

If Set default to grayscale is enabled, the remote display is changed to grayscale. This can speed up I/O transfer in low bandwidth situations.

I/O

Clicking the Attributes button brings up a dialog box that allows you to set Share mode and Timeout threshold for each of the ports:

To set a port’s Share mode, double click it to bring up the I/O attributes dialog box:

Set the port’s Share mode according to the information in the following table:

Attribute

Action

Exclusive

The first user to occupy the port has exclusive control over it.

No other user can view or access it.

 

The first user to occupy the port has control over it. Up to 31

Occupy

additional users can view its video output. The Timeout func-

 

tion applies to ports that have this setting selected.

 

Allows up to 32 users to simultaneously share control over

 

the port. User input is placed in a queue and executed

Share

sequentially. In addition, a user can access the KVM switch’s

 

Message Board function to gain control of the Share desig-

 

nated port. (See section 9.2.3, Message Board)

 

 

The Timeout field sets a time threshold for users on ports whose Share Mode has been set to Occupy. If there is no activity from the user occupying the port for the amount of time set here, the user is timed out and the port is released. The first user to send keyboard or mouse input after the port has been released gets to occupy the port. Input a value from 0 to 255 seconds. The default is 3 seconds. A setting of 0 causes the port to be released the instant there is no input.

Miscellaneous

The functions performed by the remaining elements at the bottom of the screen are described in the table on the next page:
