Drive Redirection

Note: Driver redirect requires the B050-000 to be connected via the USB port to the PC or to a USB KVM.
The Drive Redirection is another way to use a virtual disc drive on the remote computer. With Drive Redirection
you do not have to use an image file but may work with a drive from your local computer on the remote
machine. The drive is hereby shared over a TCP network connection. Devices such as floppy drives, hard discs,
CD ROMs and other removable devices like USB sticks can be redirected. It is even possible to enable a write
support so that the remote machine can write data to your local disc.
