IP Installer

The B064-Series KVM switch comes with an IP Installer application that allows Windows computers to easily view and

 

edit the KVMs network settings. This section determines what access the IP Installer has to the KVM switch.

 

• Enabled – When selected, the IP Installer can locate the KVM switch on the network and display its current IP

 

 

address. It also allows the IP Installer to be used to change the IP address of the KVM switch.

 

• View Only – When selected, the IP Installer can locate the KVM switch on the network and display its current IP

 

 

address, but it cannot be used to change the IP address of the KVM switch.

 

• Disabled – When selected, the IP Installer cannot locate the KVM switch on the network, nor can it be used to change

 

 

the IP address of the KVM switch.

 

 

Service Ports

This section allows you to set up port numbers that will be allowed by a firewall. If the port numbers on this page are not

 

allowed access by the firewall, you will not be able to access the KVM switch. Valid entries for all of the service ports

 

are from 1 to 65535. Note: You must enter a different port number for each field. If the KVM is connected to a network

 

without a firewall, it doesn’t matter what these ports are set to, as they will have no effect.
