Event Log - Avocent KVM over IP switch User Manual

8/16 PS/2 KVM over IP switch
Figure 6-32 displays the IP-KVM activity. From left to right the connected user(s), its IP
address (from which host the user comes from) and its activity status is displayed. RC
means that the Remote Console is open. If the Remote Console is opened in exclusive mode
the term (exclusive mode) is added. For more information about this option see the Section
called Remote Console Control Bar in Chapter 5. To display the user activity the last column
contains either the term active for an active user or 20 min idle for a user who is inactive for a
certain amount of time.
Reset Functions
This section allows you to reset specific parts of the device. Currently this involves the video
engine and the PS/2 IP-KVM switch itself. Resetting the card itself is mainly needed to
activate a newly updated firmware. It will close all current connections to the administration
console and to the Remote Console. The whole process will take about half a minute.
Resetting sub devices (e.g. video engine) will take some seconds only and do not result in
closing connections.
