IP auto configuration (non/dhcp/bootp) [dhcp]:

IP [192.168.0.70]:

Net mask [255.255.255.0]:

Gateway (0.0.0.0 for none) [0.0.0.0]:

IP auto configuration

With this option, you can specify whether the DKVM-IP1 switch should get its network settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For DHCP, enter “dhcp”, and for BOOTP enter “bootp”. If you do not specify any of these, the IP auto configuration is disabled and subsequently you will be asked for the following network settings.

IP address

The IP address the DKVM-IP1 switch uses. This option is only available if IP auto configuration is disabled.

Net mask

The net mask of the connected IP subnet. This option is only available if IP auto configuration is disabled.

Gateway address

The IP address of the default router for the connected IP subnet. If you do not have a default router, enter 0.0.0.0. This option is only available if IP auto configuration is disabled.

4.1.3 Keyboard, Mouse and Video configuration

Between the DKVM-IP1 switch and the host, there are two interfaces available for transmitting keyboard and mouse data: USB and PS/2. The correct operation of the remote mouse depends on several settings which will be discussed in the following subsections.

4.1.3.1 DKVM-IP1 switch keyboard settings

The DKVM-IP1 switch settings for the host's keyboard type have to be corrected in order to make the remote keyboard work properly. Check the settings in the DKVM-IP1 switch front-end. See section 6.4.3 in details.
