Soft switching
Soft switching is the ability to switch servers using a hotkey sequence. You can soft switch to a server by pressing the Print Scrn key, entering the first few characters of the server's name or port number, and pressing the Enter key.
Soft switching to a server
If the display order of your server list is by port, press the Print Scrn key, select the Port, and press the Enter key.
If the display order of your server list is by name, press the Print Scrn key, select the Name, and press the Enter key.
Soft switching to a previous server
Press the Print Scrn key, then press the Backspace key. This key combination toggles between the previous and current connection.
Disconnecting from a server
Press the Print Scrn key and press the Alt+0 keys, or click Disconnect. If there is an associated locked Virtual Media session, it is disconnected.
Disconnecting from a server leaves the console switch in a free state. The status flag ("Controlling the status flag" on page 33) on the OSD appears as Free.
