Single port KVM over IP switch
Please note that after you have pressed this button the power state displayed in the
administration panel will not immediately reflect the requested change. A controlled shut
down of the system may take some minutes. You can observe the action caused by your
button press using the Remote Console window or by reloading the Server Power Control
panel.
Long Press
This will unconditionally power off the system. Even if you have submitted a short press
before, this will shut down the power supply of the host system.
The effect of the long button press can be immediately observed on the panel that is
loaded into the browser because of the button press. The power state will be off.
Reset
Pressing this button is similar to pressing the reset button directly on the remote system .
Be aware that pressing the reset button will result in an unconditional and immediate cold
start of the system. This might damage open files and the file system itself.
Warning
The prerequisite for the remote power/reset button to work is a correct installation of
the IP-KVM switch.

Figure 6-2. Telnet Console
The IP-KVM switch firmware features a Telnet server that enables a user to connect via a
standard Telnet client. In case the Telnet program is using a VT 100, VT 102 or VT 220
terminal or an according emulation, it is even possible to perform a console redirection as
long as the IP-KVM switch host machine is using a text mode screen resolution.
