5. You can choose to select Automatic Sharing. This enables secondary users
to automatically share a KVM session without first requesting permission
from the primary user.
To share a digital connection, complete the following steps:
1. Click the Devices button in the Explorer.
2. Complete one of the following steps:
• Double-click on the target device in the Unit list.
• Select the target device, then click the Connect Video button.
• Right-click on the target device. Select Connect Video from the pop-up
menu.
• Select the target device and press Enter.
When another user is viewing this target device, a message indicates
that the target device is already involved in a KVM session.
If connection sharing is enabled on the switch and your access rights (as
compared with those of the primary user) allow it, you are prompted to
either share or preempt the existing session.
3. If the option is available, select Share.
4. Complete one of the following steps:
• Click OK or Yes. If Automatic Sharing is not enabled, a share request is
sent to the primary user, who can accept the share request as either an
active or passive (read-only) session, or reject the share request
entirely.
• Click No to cancel the share request.
If the primary user accepts the share request, or if Automatic Sharing is enabled,
a KVM session to the target device session opens, and the session type icon
within the new Video Viewer window indicates if the session status is active or
passive. If the request is rejected, a message indicates that the request was
denied. Administrators have several options at this point. They can either try to
connect again and preempt the session or connect in stealth mode, or they can
terminate the session entirely.
If you are not prompted to connect in share mode, either the switch to which the
target device is connected is not configured to allow digital share mode sessions
or it is not a KVM s4 switch.
