Step 4: Access KVM Switches and Ports (without CC-SG integration)
You access the computer devices connected to a KVM switch's ports and
your other targets through the Port Navigator window, which contains 3
panels:
Favorite Access shows the access you have configured as favorites.
•
Configuring KVM Ports
See
•
Devices shows all added KX III KVM switches and their ports.
Targets shows all added KVM, SSH, RDP and VNC targets.
•
This window is displayed by default. If not, launch it by pressing
Ctrl+Alt+N
or choosing Main Menu > Port Navigator.
Note: The User Station CANNOT access a KVM port that is connected to a
tiered KVM switch or a blade chassis server.
To access a KVM switch's ports:
1. Click a KVM switch in the Devices panel.
2. Per default, only a list of "up" ports is displayed under the selected
KVM switch. For dual port video, only the primary port must be "up"
to be displayed.
Numbers in parentheses are the physical port numbers on the
KVM switch.
Dual port video shows the primary then secondary physical port
numbers in parentheses.
