Board Summary
This section contains a summary with various information about this
IP-KVM and its current firmware and allows you to reset the card. You
may have a look at Figure 6-31 for an example.
The Data file for support allows you to download the IP-KVM data file
with specific support information. This is an XML file with certain
customized support information like the serial number etc. You may send
us this information together with a support request. It will help us to
locate and solve your reported problem.
[Figure 6-32. Connected Users]
Figure 6-31 displays the IP-KVM activity. From left to right the
connected user(s), its IP address (from which host the user comes from)
and its activity status is displayed. RC means that the Remote
Console is open. If the Remote Console is opened in exclusive mode
the term (exclusive mode) is added. For more information about this
option see the Section called Remote Console Control Bar in Chapter 5 .
To display the user activity the last column contains either the term
active for an active user or 20 min idle for an user who is
inactive for a certain amount of time.
Reset Functions
This section allows you to reset specific parts of the device. Currently this involves the video
engine and the IP-KVM switch itself. Resetting the card itself is mainly needed to activate a
newly updated firmware. It will close all current connections to the administration console and
to the Remote Console. The whole process will take about half a minute. Resetting sub
devices (e.g. video engine) will take some seconds only and do not result in closing
connections.
