Chapter 7

On Screen Display

Administrators and regular users can use the OSD for troubleshooting when a direct connection method is required. However, most configuration and operations tasks are performed through the Web Manager.

Access to the OSD requires a local keyboard, monitor, and mouse connected to the KVM management ports, User 1 or User 2, on the back of the KVM/net. See “To Connect to the User 1 Management Port” on page 83 for instructions on connecting to the User 1 port, or see “To Connect the KVM RP to the KVM/net” on page 131 for instructions on connecting to the User 2 port.

Once the connected monitor is turned on, the OSD login window appears. See the following sections for more information on the OSD screens:
