4.14 Querying the routing status

It is sometimes useful to know which KVM consoles are connected to which computers and their connection modes (shared, exclusive or video only). For example, if the CPU Switch denies you access to a particular computer you may wish to know if another KVM console has exclusive use of this computer and consequently is preventing your access. To query the routing status press F1 from the main on-screen menu and then select ROUTING STATUS. A routing status display similar to the one shown below will be displayed for 10 seconds. Press ESC to quit or wait for the routing status screen to disappear.
