Chapter 4. Configuration

ŠMultiuser Mode: Defines how a port is to be accessed when multiple users have logged on, as follows:

ŠExclusive: The first user to switch to the port has exclusive control over the port. No other users can view the port.

ŠOccupy: The first user to switch to the port has control over the port. However, additional users may view the port’s video display.

ŠShare: Users simultaneously share control over the port. Input from the users is placed in a queue and executed chronologically. Under these circumstances, users can take advantage of the Message Board, which allows a user to take control of the keyboard and mouse or keyboard, mouse, and video of a Share port (see The Message Board, page 80).

ŠOccupy Timeout: If there is no user input for the amount of time specified here, the control privilege is released and transferred to the next user who moves the mouse or uses the keyboard.

ŠReset: After making any network changes, be sure Reset on exit has been enabled (there is a check in the checkbox), before logging out. This allows network changes to take effect without having to power the switch off and on.

Click Reset Default Values to use the default factory settings of the CN8600.
