7. Administration
Ping Host
The Ping Host subsection lets you check the network status of devic-
es on the KVM installation.
To ping a device, follow the instructions below.
1. Key in the IP address or Host Name of the device into the IP
address/Host Name field.
2. Click the Ping button. The ping results will be displayed in the
Results section.
System Operation
The System Operation sub-section allows you to clear port names,
and reset the KVM configuration settings to their default values.
The functions available in the System Operation page are explained
in the table below.
Field
Example
Clear Port Names
Click this button to clear all of the port names on the installation and restore them to their default values. Upon clicking this button,
you will be prompted to confirm that you wish to clear all port names. Click Yes to proceed.
Reset Default Values
Click this button to undo all configuration changes that have been made to the KVM, and restore them to the factory default settings.
This does not affect port names, account information or network information. Upon clicking this button, you will be prompted to
confirm that you wish to proceed. Click Yes to proceed.
Reset on Exit
Check this box and click the Apply button to have the KVM switch reset itself and implement all new settings upon logging out. (Following
the reset, allow approximately 30 to 60 seconds before logging back into the KVM.)
If you change the IP address of the KVM, the Reset on Exit checkbox is automatically checked. To prevent the KVM from resetting and
saving the new IP address, uncheck this box. Note: Un-selecting this checkbox will only cause the new network settings to be ignored for
one logout. When you log back in, the changes you made still appear in the Network settings fields, and the Reset on Exit checkbox is
once again checked. To ensure that these settings don't get changed to something you don't want, always make sure that you leave the
Network settings page with the correct information entered in.

The Download icon is used to download non-browser AP versions of
the Windows and Java Clients, as well as the Log Server. Selecting
this tab will open a drop-down list of the programs that are available
for download.
Note: If you have not been given access to one of these applica-
tions, you will not be able to download it.
Click on the Download icon and select the program you want to
