2.. Web Configuration Interface

Configuring the SNMP settings:

This section of the Device tab allows you to configure the KVM so that notifications can be sent to a SNMP server when a LAN port or power socket fails. Upon receiving notification of the failure, LAN or power redundancy are enabled. Note: If both LANs or power sockets fail, a message cannot be sent to the SNMP server.

Trap Recipient Address – The Trap Recipient Address section provides three types of addresses that you can enter for the SNMP server that you want traps to be sent to: IPv4, IPv6, and Host. Check the checkbox of the type of address you wish to enter, and then enter in the address that corresponds to your SNMP server.

Community – In this field, type in the SNMP write community string to be used for authentication of messages sent between the KVM and the SNMP server.

After making any changes to the KVM’s SNMP settings, click on the Save button at the top of the screen to save them. Upon clicking Save, you will be prompted to reboot the KVM to finish implementation of the new Device settings. Click Yes to proceed.

2..4..5 Users

The Users tab in the Configuration section allows administrators to Add, Edit, and Delete accounts on the KVM. Up to 256 accounts can be added, with any combination of Administrators and Users. The following section describes this page, and how to configure accounts.

There are two levels of user access:

Administrator – Has unrestricted access to all windows and settings, and can change the name and password of all users.

User – Can access and control Target Servers that they are given access to by an administrator. Users cannot access the Configure or Events sections of the Web Configuration Interface, nor can they disconnect remote sessions. When in a remote session, they are not allowed to access the power management functionality.

To add an account:

1.Click on the Users tab in the Configuration section. The Users page opens and displays the a list of existing accounts.

2.Click the Add button. The Add User page appears.

3.Type in a User Name and Password. The password must be at least six alphanumeric characters long and cannot include the user name, even if other characters are added. Note: Although User Names can be entered in both lowercase and uppercase, they are not case sensitive when being used to login to the KVM; therefore, do not create two users with the same name. (e.g. user1, USER1) User Name and Password must be 10 characters or less. The “special” characters &, <, >, and cannot be used for either the user name or password. The User Name and Password parameters depend on the security level chosen (See the Security section in this manual for details).

4.In the Confirm Password field, retype the password.

5.In the Permission dropdown menu, select the permission type: Administrator or User.

6.Click OK. The new account is added to the list in the Users page.

7.Click the Save button at the top of the screen to save your changes.
