Product Overview

The Dell™ Remote Console Switch (RCS) software is a cross-platform
management application that allows you to view and control the switches and all
attached servers. The cross-platform design ensures compatibility with most
popular operating systems and hardware platforms. The RCS software provides
secure switch-based authentication, data transfers, and username/password
storage. Each switch handles authentication and access control individually for
more decentralized system control.

The RCS software utilizes Explorer-like navigation with an intuitive split-screen
interface, providing you with a single point of access for your entire system.
From here, you can manage your existing switches, install a new switch, or
launch a video session to a system server. Built-in groupings such as Servers,
Sites, and Folders provide an easy way to select the units to view. Powerful
search and sort capabilities allow you to easily find any unit.

Features and Benefits

The RCS software is designed for easy installation and operation. Auto-discovery
of managed switches enables you to install new units in minutes. Wizard-based
installation and online help simplify initial system configuration. The intuitive
graphical interface makes managing and updating switches simple and
straightforward.

Powerful Customization Capabilities

You can tailor the RCS software to fit your specific system needs. Take
advantage of built-in groups or create your own. Customize unit and field names
