2.
Select option 1 to set your network speed. When possible, you should set
your connection manually without relying on the auto negotiate feature.
Once you enter your selection, you will be returned to the Network
Confi guration menu.
3.
Select option 2 and specify if you are using a static or Dynamic Host
Confi guration Protocol (DHCP) address. A static IP address may be used
to provide a user-defi ned IP address, netmask and default gateway for the
DSR1021 switch.
DHCP is a protocol that automates the confi guration of TCP/IP-enabled
computers. When DHCP is selected, the IP Address, Netmask and Default
Gateway settings are automatically assigned to the DSR1021 switch and
may not be modifi ed by a DS user. If you are using the DHCP option,
please confi gure your DHCP server to provide an IP address to the
DSR1021 switch, skip step 4 and continue to the next procedure.

Select options 3-6 from the Terminal Applications menu, in turn, to fi nish
confi guring your DSR1021 switch for IP address, netmask, default gateway
and ping response. Once this is completed, type a Ø and press Enter to
return to the main menu.
Adjusting mouse settings on target machines
NOTE: We highly recommend that all Windows systems attached to the DSR1021 switch use
the default Windows PS/2 mouse driver.
Before a PC running Windows NT, 2000 or XP that is connected to the DSR1021
switch may be used for remote user control, an adjustment to the target
mouse's Motion tab must be made. Use the default Microsoft
mouse driver for all Microsoft Windows systems attached to the appliance.
For Microsoft Windows NT (using default drivers):
1.
From the Desktop, select Start - Settings - Control Panel - Mouse. The
Mouse Properties dialog box will appear.
2.
Click on the Motion tab.
3.
Set the Pointer speed to Slow. This will also need to be done for any NT
user account that will be accessing the NT system through the
DSR1021 switch.
4.
Set Acceleration to None for mouse sync.
5.
Click OK.
6.
Click Mouse Align in the DSView software remote session window(s) to
resynchronize the mouse.
