3..2 Remote Session Toolbar

The NetCommander IP provides a toolbar that allows a remote session to be manipulated. The features on the toolbar allow you to toggle between accessible ports, adjust the video settings of the remote session, align the local and remote mouse pointers, etc.. When a remote session is initiated, the toolbar is displayed briefly in the top-center of the screen, and then collapses to display only a thin bar. To expand the toolbar, simply move the mouse pointer over the blue bar at the top-center of the screen. The following sections describe the features available in the remote session toolbar, and how they are used.

3..2..1 Pin Toolbar

– Clicking on the Pin Toolbar icon will toggle between displaying the toolbar constantly and allowing it to disappear after a few seconds. By default, it disappears after a few seconds.

3..2..2 Session

– Clicking on the Session icon will display a drop-down list of four options; Mount ISO, Unmount ISO, Session Profile, and About.

•Mount ISO – The Mount ISO feature allows you to mount an ISO file to the Target Server as virtual media. Note: A B078-101-USB-1 SIU must be connected to the Target Server for virtual media to work. The ISO file that you are mounting must be located in a Shared Folder of a Samba or NFS file server which is on the same network that the NetCommander IP is connected to.

To mount the ISO as virtual media:

1.Click on the icon in the remote session toolbar, and choose the Mount ISO option. The Mount ISO window appears.

2.In the Share Name, type in the share name of the ISO file from your Samba or NFS file server. For example, if the desired ISO file has the path \\hostname\sharedr\file.iso, the Share Name that you should type is: \\hostname\sharedr.

3.In the ISO Path field, type the direct path to the ISO file. In the example of the previous step, the ISO Path is \file.iso.

4.Select one of the following supported file sharing methods:

•Samba (Microsoft Windows)

•NFS (Unix/Linux)

5.For secured file sharing type in a User Name and Password.

6.Click the Mount button. The ISO file is mounted onto the server.
