Managing Your Remote Console

Switch Using the On-board Web

Interface

Once you have installed a new Remote Console Switch, you have the ability to view and configure unit parameters, determine who has access and control rights, view and control currently active video sessions, and execute a variety of control functions such as rebooting and upgrading your Remote Console Switch from the on-board web interface. The on-board web interface has four tabs: Connections, Configure, Status, and Tools.

For how to launch the on-board web interface, see "Launching the On-board Web Interface" on page 32. For information about the Connections tab, see "Accessing Servers from the On-board Web Interface" on page 105.

NOTE: Since the on-board web interface is not supported on the 2161DS Remote Console Switch, it cannot be migrated. See your 2161DS user guide for more information. All other Remote Console Switches support the on-board web interface and may be migrated. See "Migrating Remote Console Switches to the On- board Web Interface" on page 173 for more information.
