KVM Over the NET™ User Manual

Port Level

When a port is selected in the Sidebar tree, the Connections page changes to display the port connection and configuration options:

The screen is divided into three major panels, as described in the table below:

Panel

Description

 

 

Status

The Status Panel displays the port’s current status

 

information, including whether the port is online or offline, and

 

if the port is mountable.

 

Click the Connect button to view the port display via the

 

switch’s built-in Win Viewer (when using Windows Internet

 

Explorer), or Java Viewer (when using other web browsers).

 

 

Associated Link

The Associated Link Panel provides a method of associating

 

other ports on the same switch to the selected port. This

 

function is primarily intended to be used when connecting

 

both KVM and serial ports (KA7140, KA9140) from a single

 

server to the switch. Click Add to add a desired associated

 

port. To remove an unwanted associated port, select it and

 

click Remove. To connect to a port, select it, and click

 

Connect.

 

 

Exit Macro

The Exit Macro Panel contains a dropdown listbox of System

 

macros. You can select a macro from the list that will execute

 

when exiting the port. See System Macros, page 61 for details

 

on creating exit macros.

 

The macro only executes after the last user accessing the port

 

exits the port.
