Logging In To The Kvm Over Ip; Web Browser; Ap Windows Client Login - Tripp Lite B030-008-17-IP Owner's Manual

10. Logging In to the KVM over IP

Three methods can be used to connect to the KVM switch over IP: Web Browser, AP Windows Client and AP Java Client. The web interface
appearance will vary slightly, depending on which method is used.

10.1 Web Browser

The B030-008-17-IP can be accessed via an internet browser running on any platform. To access the device:
1. Open the browser and specify the IP address of the switch to access in the browser's URL bar.
Note: For security purposes, a login string may have been set by the administrator. If so, include a forward slash and the login string, along with the
IP address when logging in. (e.g. 192.168.0.100/abcdefg). If the IP address and/or login string is not known, contact your System Administrator.
2. When a Security Alert dialog box appears, accept the certificate (it can be trusted). If a second certificate appears, accept it as well.
Once all certificate(s) are accepted, the login page will appear.
3. Provide your username and password (set by the administrator), then click Login to access the Web Configuration Interface Main Page.

10.2 AP Windows Client Login

When connecting the KVM switch via web browser is not desired or feasible, the AP Windows Client found on the included CD-ROM provides
non-browser access to the KVM switch via a Windows computer. If access to the AP Windows Client software is restricted, contact your System
Administrator.
Notes:
• The AP Windows Client can also be downloaded from the Web Configuration Interface.
• The AP Windows Client requires Direct X 8.0 or higher be installed on your computer.
1. Save the AP Windows Client to a desired location on a Windows computer.
2. Double-click on the file and follow the installation instructions.
3. When the installation is complete, a shortcut icon will be added to the desktop, and a program entry will be made in the Windows start
menu. Double-click on the icon or select the program entry in the start menu to open the AP Windows Client.
4. If this is the first time running the utility, a dialog box will appear requesting the software serial number. The serial number can be found on
the CD. Enter the serial number (5 characters per box), then click OK.
