CHAPTER 4: Operation: Hardware and Keyboard Commands

4.3.9DISPLAY LABEL

One of the ServSwitch’s graphic-overlay functions is to display the on-screen “label” window that contains the number and assigned name of the currently selected CPU (see Section 5.4.3). If this label is not on screen, you can use this command to cause the Switch to display the label for the length of time you have configured for the label’s “fadeout interval” (see Section 5.4.3.D), or, if fadeout is disabled, for five seconds. (If fadeout is set to 255, the label will be displayed at all times.)

Conversely, if the label is being displayed and you want it to go away, issuing the Display Label command while the label is on screen will cause it to disappear.

To issue the Display Label command, press and release the left Control key, then type [D].

4.3.10ACTIVATE ON-SCREEN MENUS

You can use this command to cause the ServSwitch to display its on-screen overlay menus, beginning with the main menu (see Section 5.1.1). To issue the Activate On-Screen Menus command, press and release the left Control key, then press and release the [F12] key.

4.3.11ACTIVATE SELECT WINDOW

You can use this command to cause the ServSwitch to display its “computer select window” (see Section 5.6). To issue the Activate Select Window command, press and release the left Control key, then press and release the [Esc] (escape) key.

4.3.12LOG OUT

If an access password has been set for your ServSwitch system (see Section 5.5.2), you can use this command to log out (to relinquish access rights) when you’re finished with a session at a user station. This will cause the ServSwitch to display an “Enter password” prompt and stop accepting any keyboard and mouse input except the access password; a few seconds later, it will blank the screen with the currently selected screen saver. While no one is logged in—that is, until someone correctly enters the access password—typing at the keyboard will cause the “Enter password” prompt to briefly become visible, but otherwise, no computer video will be displayed and no keyboard and mouse access will be allowed.

If no access password has been set for your system, you can use this command to cause the ServSwitch to display its currently selected screen saver (see

Section 5.4.1.C). Normal video will be restored as soon as someone types at the keyboard or moves the mouse.

To log out, press and release the left Control key, then type [L].

SW725A-R4, SW722A-R4, SW723A-R4, KV3108SA-R4, SW724A-R4 specifications

The Black Box SW721A-R4, SW724A-R4, KV3108SA-R4, SW723A-R4, and SW722A-R4 are cutting-edge network switches that cater to the demanding needs of modern data environments. These models are designed to provide high performance, reliability, and advanced features suitable for both enterprise-level deployments and smaller networks.

The SW721A-R4 and SW724A-R4 are primarily layer 2 switches that support essential networking protocols such as IEEE 802.1Q for VLAN tagging, ensuring secure and efficient traffic management. With robust forwarding capabilities, these switches boast high-speed Gigabit Ethernet ports, which enable seamless data transfer and reduce latency in data-driven applications. Their fanless design also ensures quiet operation, making them ideal for office settings and noise-sensitive areas.

Another noteworthy addition is the KV3108SA-R4, a versatile KVM switch that provides remote management capabilities. This model can control multiple servers and computers from a single console, allowing IT personnel to streamline operations and reduce physical space requirements. With support for high-resolution video output and an intuitive user interface, the KV3108SA-R4 enhances usability while maintaining efficiency in server management.

The SW723A-R4 and SW722A-R4 models further enhance network capabilities with their advanced Layer 3 functions. These switches support static routing and dynamic routing protocols, making them suitable for complex networking scenarios. They are equipped with a comprehensive set of security features, including port security and access control lists (ACLs), ensuring that sensitive information is well-protected against unauthorized access.

All of these Black Box models operate on advanced technologies such as QoS (Quality of Service), which helps prioritize critical traffic and ensures optimal performance during peak usage periods. Additionally, they support Power over Ethernet (PoE), enabling the powering of network devices such as IP cameras and VoIP phones without the need for additional electrical outlets.

In summary, the Black Box SW721A-R4, SW724A-R4, KV3108SA-R4, SW723A-R4, and SW722A-R4 represent a fusion of performance, versatility, and security in network infrastructure. These switches are perfect for businesses looking to enhance their connectivity solutions, ensuring that they can meet the demands of an increasingly digital world while maintaining high standards of efficiency and reliability.
