Chapter 2 Installation
2.1 System Requirements
Local Console: One USB Keyboard, one USB Mouse and one Monitor
Remote Console: Computers installed with TCP/IP
For an insecure connection to the IKVM-8010 / IKVM-16010, the following browsers
can be used:
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher on Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP
l
and Win7
Netscape Navigator 7.0 or Mozilla 1.6 on Windows 98, Windows ME,
l
Windows2000, Windows XP, Linux and other UNIX-like Operating Systems
In order to access the remote host system using a securely encrypted connection,
you need a browser that supports the HTTPS protocol. Strong security is only
assured by using a key length of 128 Bit. Some of the old browsers do not have a
strong 128 Bit encryption algorithm.
For using the Remote Console window of your managed host system, the browser
must come with a Java Runtime Environment version 1.1 or higher. If the browser
has no Java support (such as on a small handheld device), you are still able to
maintain your remote host system using the administration forms displayed by the
browser itself. The recommended environment is Sun JVM 1.4.
Host: 8/16 PCs or servers
