2.From your client computer, use your modem dial-in program to dial into the KVM Over the NET™ switch’s modem.

Note: 1. If you don’t know the KVM Over the NET™ switch modem’s serial parameters, get them from the KVM Over the NET™ administrator.

2.An example of setting up a modem dial-in program under Windows XP is provided on the next page.

3.Once the connection is established, open your browser, and specify 192.168.192.1 in the URL box.

Note: 1. The default username and password are blank.

2.For the modem session, the KVM Over the NET™ switch has an IP address of 192.168.192.1; the user side has an IP address of 192.168.192.101.

From here, operation is the same as if you had logged in from a browser or with the AP programs.
