Connecting Cascaded KVM Units to the Primary KVM/net

Connecting Cascaded KVM Units to the Primary KVM/net

The KVM/net supports the cascading of three types of secondary KVM devices: the AlterPath KVM, the KVM Expander, and the KVM/net. See the following sections for the appropriate instructions:

•“To Connect a Secondary KVM Unit to the Primary KVM/net” on page 127

•“To Connect a KVM Expander to the Primary KVM/net” on page 128

Each of these cascaded devices has it’s own set up and installation instructions which must be performed in addition to connecting the device to the master KVM/net:

•AlterPath KVM – See the AlterPath KVM Installation, Administration, and User’s Guide for installation instructions.

•KVM Expander – See the “Installing the AlterPath KVM Expander” on page 119 for installation instructions.

•KVM/net – See Chapter 2, “Installation” on page 2-71 for installation instructions.

For background information on cascading, see “Cascaded Devices” on page 21.
