Setting

Description

Session
Settings: Allow
Reserved
Sessions

Ensures that a virtual media connection can only

be accessed with your username and that no

other user can create a KVM connection to that

target device. When the associated KVM session

is disconnected, the virtual media session may

be disconnected according to the Locked setting

in the Virtual Media dialog box.

Drive Mappings:

Virtual Media

Access Mode

You may set the access mode for mapped drives

to read-only or read-write. When the access

mode is read-only, the user will not be able to

write data to the mapped drive on the client

server. When the access mode is read-write, the

user will be able to read and write data from/to

the mapped drive. If the mapped drive is read-

only by design (for example, a CD-ROM drive,

DVD-ROM drive or ISO images), the configured

read-write access mode will be ignored. Setting

the read-only mode can be helpful when a read-

write drive such as a mass storage device or a

USB removable media is mapped, and you wish

to prevent the user from writing data to it.

You can have one DVD drive and one mass

storage device mapped concurrently. A CD drive,

DVD drive, or ISO disk image file is mapped as a

virtual CD/DVD drive.

Encryption Level

You may configure encryption levels for virtual

media sessions. The choices are: None (default),

128-bit SSL (ARCFOUR), DES, 3DES, and AES.
