•Local Cursor

Offers a list of different cursor shapes to choose from for the local mouse pointer. The selected shape will be saved for the current user and activated the next time this user opens the Remote Console. The number of available shapes depends on the Java Virtual Machine; a version of 1.2 or higher offers the full list.

•Video Settings

Opens a panel for changing the PS/2 IP-KVM switch video settings. PS/2 IP-KVM switch features two different dialogs, which influence the video settings.

Video Settings through the HTML-Frontend

To enable local video port, select this option. This option decides if the local video output of PS/2 IP-KVM switch is active and passing through the incoming signal from the host system.

The option Noise Filter defines how PS/2 IP-KVM switch reacts to small changes in the video input signal. A large filter setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video display, but small changes in some display regions may not be recognized immediately. A small filter displays all changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of network traffic even if display content is not really changing
