14DSR Installer/User Guide

2.Select option 1 to set your network speed. When possible, you should set your connection manually without relying on the auto negotiate feature. Once you enter your selection, you will be returned to the Network Configuration menu.

3.Select option 2 and specify if you are using a static or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) address. A static IP address may be used to provide a user-defined IP address, netmask and default gateway for the DSR1021 switch.

DHCP is a protocol that automates the configuration of TCP/IP-enabled computers. When DHCP is selected, the IP Address, Netmask and Default Gateway settings are automatically assigned to the DSR1021 switch and may not be modified by a DS user. If you are using the DHCP option, please configure your DHCP server to provide an IP address to the DSR1021 switch, skip step 4 and continue to the next procedure.

4.Select options 3-6 from the Terminal Applications menu, in turn, to finish configuring your DSR1021 switch for IP address, netmask, default gateway and ping response. Once this is completed, type a Ø and press Enter to return to the main menu.

Adjusting mouse settings on target machines

NOTE: We highly recommend that all Windows systems attached to the DSR1021 switch use the default Windows PS/2 mouse driver.

Before a PC running Windows NT, 2000 or XP that is connected to the DSR1021 switch may be used for remote user control, an adjustment to the target mouse’s Motion tab must be made. Use the default Microsoft® Windows PS/2 mouse driver for all Microsoft Windows systems attached to the appliance.

For Microsoft Windows NT (using default drivers):

1.From the Desktop, select Start - Settings - Control Panel - Mouse. The Mouse Properties dialog box will appear.

2.Click on the Motion tab.

3.Set the Pointer speed to Slow. This will also need to be done for any NT user account that will be accessing the NT system through the DSR1021 switch.

4.Set Acceleration to None for mouse sync.

5.Click OK.

6.Click Mouse Align in the DSView software remote session window(s) to resynchronize the mouse.
