GUI
The Remote Console Switch uses the OSCAR
®
interface, which features intuitive menus to
configure your switch system and select computers. Devices can be identified by a name, EID or
port number, allowing you to assign unique device names.
Security
The OSCAR ® interface allows you to protect your system with a screen saver password. The
screen saver mode engages and access is prohibited until the appropriate password is entered to
reactivate the system. By typing Help in the password dialog, you are directed to Dell Technical
Support.
Encryption
The Remote Console Switch supports DES, 3DES, and 128-bit SSL encryption of keyboard,
video, and mouse sessions.
Operation Modes
The OSCAR ® user interface provides convenient operation modes for easy system
administration of the Remote Console Switch. These modes (Broadcast, Scan, Switch and
Share) allow you to manage your switching activities. Chapter 3, “Basic Operations” on page 25
explains these modes in detail.
Video
The Remote Console Switch provides optimal resolution for analog VGA, SVGA and XGA
video. You can achieve resolutions of 1024 x 768, depending on the length of cable separating
your switch and servers.
