it means you’ll use 6080 for the viewer port base and 6088 for the SSL browser connection (<PortBase+8>). Thus, you would enter https://192.168.1.36:6088 in the browser address bar to obtain Web Management access, and within the viewer prompt window you would enter 192.168.1.36:6080. Note: The DNS setting is required only when you want to use the mail alert function to notify users of specific server alert events via
4.Validate the new settings by clicking “Store Settings” to commit them to the switch’s flash memory. Then go to the Apply Settings screen and click “Restart Servers” to make any new settings take effect.
5.Verify the presence of the Digital KVM over IP Switch within your LAN by trying to ping the IP address of the switch from any computer on the LAN. For example, in the DOS box, enter: ping 192.168.1.36 — a reply to the ping indicates that you can now access the switch using any computer within your LAN environment.
Router/Firewall Configuration for Internet Access
NOTE: These settings are for your router, not the KVM over IP Switch.
1.Configure a virtual server on your router as mapped to the switch’s local IP address.
2.Open a port range (<port_base> — <port_base_+_9>) both inbound and outbound for the virtual server (based on the configuration in previous steps). If, as above, the switch has a port base of 6080, then the port range would be
<port_base> = 6080 (viewer connection port)
<port_base + 8> = 6088 (browser SSL connection port)
<port_base + 9> = 6089 (for viewer internal communication, etc.) NOTE: Once you’ve changed the port base of the switch, you should also modify the open port range on your router accordingly if you want Internet access to come across.
Testing the Viewer Connection via the LAN/Internet
1.Log in to the Web Management interface (using a valid IP address and the username/password as above).
