Single Port KVM over IP

57 / 88

The standard color depth is 8 Bit (256 colors). The other color depths are

intended for slower network connections in order to allow a faster
transmission of data. Therefore compression level 0 (no compression)
uses only 16 Bit color depth. At lower bandwidths only 4 Bit (16 colors) and
2 Bit (4 gray scales) are recommended for typical desktop interfaces.
Photo-like pictures have best results with 4 Bit (16 gray scales). 1 Bit color
depth (black/white) should only be used for extremely slow network
connections.

Remote Console Type

Specifies, which Remote Console Viewer to use.

Default Java-VM

Uses the default Java Virtual Machine of your Browser. This may be the
Microsoft JVM for the Internet Explorer, or the Sun JVM if it is configured
this way. Use of the Sun JVM may also be forced (see below).

Sun Microsystems Java Browser Plugin

Instructs the web browser of your administration system to use the JVM of
Sun Microsystems. The JVM in the browser is used to run the code for the
Remote Console window, which is actually a Java Applet. If you check this
box for the first time on your administration system and the appropriate
Java plug-in is not already installed on your system, it will be downloaded
and installed automatically. However, in order to make the installation
possible, you still need to answer the according dialogs with “yes” . The
download volume is around 11 Mbytes. The advantage of downloading
Sun's JVM lays in providing a stable and identical Java Virtual Machine
across different platforms. The Remote Console software is optimized for
this JVM versions and offers wider range of functionality when run in
SUN's JVM. Please make sure that you are installing Sun JVM 1.4.2 or
above to your client system.
