6.5 Logging Into the KVM over IP
There are three methods that can be used to connect to the KVM switch over IP; Web Browser, AP Windows Client and AP Java Client.
6.5.1 Browser Login
The B020-Series KVM Switches can be accessed via Internet browser from any platform that has the Java Runtime Environment 6, Update 3, or
higher installed. If you do not have the required JRE already installed, it is available for free download from the Java web site: www.java.com
Note: Windows 7 users must run Internet Explorer as an administrator for the Active X control to work properly. If you do not run Internet Explorer
as an administrator, you will not be able to access the connected computers.
To access the switch via browser, do the following:
1. Open the browser and specify the IP address of the B020-Series KVM Switch you want to access, as given to you by your system
administrator.
Note: For security purposes, a login string may have been set by the administrator. If so, you must include a forward slash and the login
string along with the IP address when you log in. (For example, a computer with a login string of B020-U08-IP would have a URL such as
192.168.0.100/ B020-U08-IP .)
2. When you try to log into the device from your browser, a Security Alert message appears to inform you that the device's certificate is not
trusted, and asks if you want to proceed. The certificate can be trusted, but the alert is triggered because the certificate's name is not found
on Microsoft's list of Trusted Authorities.
You have two options:
• If you are working on a computer other than your own, accept the certificate for just this session by clicking Yes.
• If you are working at your own computer, install the certificate. After the certificate is installed, it will be recognized as trusted. To install the
certificate, do the following:
a) In the Security Alert dialog box, click View Certificate. The Certificate Information dialog box appears.
Note: You may need to run Internet Explorer as an Administrator in order to view and install the certificate.
