DHCP is enabled, some of these values may be supplied automatically.
Clicking the Commit button applies any changes made on this page, but leaves the
old settings active until the next time the unit restarts. Clicking Make changes effective
now applies the changes and restarts the IP KVM so the new settings take effect
immediately.
Ethernet Address (MAC Address): This is the Ethernet hardware address of this unit’s
LAN port. It is set at the factory and cannot be changed. You may need this number to
configure your DHCP server.
Dynamic DNS Configuration: Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a method, protocol, or network
service that allows a networked device using the Internet Protocol Suite to notify
a domain name server to change, in real time, the active DNS configuration of its
configured hostnames, addresses or other information stored in DNS.
Numerous providers, called Dynamic DNS service providers, offer such technology
and services on the Internet. They provide a software client program that automates
this function. The client program is executed on a computer or device in the private
network. It connects to the service provider’s systems and causes those systems to link
the discovered public IP address of the home network with a hostname in the domain
name system. Depending on the provider, the hostname is registered within a domain
owned by the provider or the customer’s own domain name.
User Accounts
This menu will allow you to add accounts
other than admin to the system. These
accounts will not have the authority to
change settings, but can access the Web
interface and log into the VNC console.
Selecting Delete permanently removes
the user from the system. If you enter
values for a user that does not already
exist under Edit User Details, the system
will create that user for you when you
click Record changes. If the user already exists, you may change the password for that
user.
