The Log Server

The Windows-based Log Server is an administrative utility that records all the events that take place on selected B064-Series KVM Switch units
and writes them to a searchable database. This chapter describes how to install and configure the Log Server.

Installation

1. From the computer that you want to use as the Log Server, open
your browser and log into the B064-Series KVM Switch.
2. Download the Log Server by clicking on the Download Icon at the
top of the page and selecting it from the drop-down list.
3. Navigate to where you saved the Log Server file and double-click
on it to open it. If any security warning dialog boxes appear, ignore
them and click Run or Open. The Log Server installation screen
appears:

Starting Up

To bring up the Log Server, either double click the program icon, or
key in the full path to the program on the command line. The first
time your run it, a screen similar to the one below appears:

The Menu Bar

The Menu bar consists of four drop-down menus:
• Configure
• Events
• Options
• Help
Note: If the Menu Bar appears to be disabled, select one of the B064-Series KVM Switch units from the list window to enable it.
4. Click Next. Then follow the on-screen instructions to complete the
installation and have the Log Server program icon placed on your
desktop.
5. Before starting up the Log Server, go to the Device Management
section of the B064-Series KVM Switch OSD and open up the
ANMS tab. In the corresponding fields, enter the MAC Address
and Port Number for the computer/server that you have installed
the Log Server on. (See Advanced Network Management Settings
section under Device Management in OSD Operation for details)
Note: The Log Server requires the Microsoft Jet OLEDB 4.0 driver in
order to access the database.
The screen is divided into three components:
• A Menu Bar at the top
• A panel that will contain a list of all B064-Series KVM Switch
units in the middle
• A panel that will contain an Events List at the bottom
