Port ID Numbering
Each CPU port on the switch is assigned a port number. The port numbers are marked on the rear
panel of the switch and each switch LED has a corresponding number for easy identification.
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the CPU port number it is connected to. For example, a
computer connected to CPU port 2 has a Port ID of 2.
The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM, USB peripheral, and / or audio focus
with the Hotkey port selection method.

when entering hotkey combinations
