SMART IP LINK
24. Keyboard layout
Your client keyboard changes its layout to match the host system. So for example if
the host system uses a US English keyboard layout, special keys on a German
keyboard won't work but will function as US English keys.
To solve this problem, adjust the client system keyboard to the same mapping as the
host one. Alternatively, use the Soft-Keyboard that is part of the Remote Console
applet.
The Remote Console window is a Java Applet that tries to establish its own TCP
connection to IP Link. The protocol that is run over this connection is not HTTP or
HTTPS but a protocol called RFB (Remote Frame Buffer Protocol). Currently RFB
tries to establish a connection to port number 443. Your local network environment
must allow this connection to be made, i.e. your firewall and, in case you have a
private internal network, your NAT (Network Address Translation) settings must be
configured accordingly.
In case IP Link is connected to your local network environment and your connection
to the Internet is available using a proxy server only without NAT being configured,
the Remote Console is very unlikely to be able to establish the according
connection. This is because today's Web proxies are not capable of relaying the RFB
protocol. In case of problems, please consult your network administrator in order to
provide an appropriate network environment.
The Remote Console window shows the host screen at its optimal size. However,
you can always resize the Remote Console window in your client window system.
Hint: Unlike the host system, the Remote Console window on your client window
system is just one window among others. To make the keyboard and mouse work,
your Remote Console window must have the input focus.
25. Toolbar buttons and icons
The toolbar buttons and icons have the following functions:
etc.- Press to send the key combinations to the host system.
Section 35 explains how to add Button keys.
Auto adjust - Adjusts the screen to the best visual quality
Sync mouse - Synchronizes the client and host mice. Necessary when
using accelerated mouse settings on the host system. There is generally no need to
change mouse settings on the host.
