General

The KM Configuration utility is a web based tool that allows system
administrators to define custom displays' setup and create a custom
KM configuration file.
The KM configuration file (kmc extension) will later be loaded to a KM
that will be configured accordingly.
There are many cases where a single computer user needs to work
simultaneously with few computers. In some cases users may have
multiple displays attached to each of these multiple computers. The
challenge is how a single user can interact with multiple computers
having multiple displays. KVMs would not do a good job for these
users as they were designed to switch displays as well. KM switch is
a device that switches a single set of keyboard and mouse between
multiple computers. KM switch is essentially a KVM switch without
the video switching - all displays are continuously connected to their
computers.
Using KM Configuration Utility administrators can define any number
of displays connected to each computer with different or identical
sizes and screen resolutions. The displays can be deployed in any
physical layout. The KM Configuration Utility also allows removal of
unneeded bridges between displays.

A KM configuration file is based on the number of computers that will
be connected to the KM and the number of displays each computer
will have connected to it. Make sure you know the sizes and native
display resolution of all displays connected to all computers that will
eventually be connected to that KM switch. Accurate data entry is
essential to enable proper user experience with the KM switch.
