5.3 Remote Console

5.3.1 Show Remote Console

The Remote Console is the redirected screen, keyboard and mouse of the remote host system PS/2 KVM over IP switch controls.

Starting the Remote Console causes an additional window popping up that contains a copy of the screen of your host system (see Figure 5.4). The Remote Console will behave exactly in the same way as if you were sitting directly in front of the screen of your remote system. That means keyboard and mouse can be used in the usual way. However, be aware of the fact that the remote system will react to keyboard and mouse actions with a slight delay. The delay depends on the bandwidth of the line over which you are connected to PS/2 KVM over IP switch.
