the computers. If you do not save the hardware settings when you install a switch system,
add or remove computers from the system, or change the mouse, keyboard, or monitor,
they are lost when power to the switch is lost or turned off and each computer must be
rebooted.
You can display the version number of the switch firmware as well as
information about any auxiliary devices connected to the switch to facilitate
system troubleshooting and support.
The Version screen also displays specific device information for the currently
selected computer. Keyboard information includes enabled/disabled, typematic
rate, LED settings, port mode, and keyboard type. Mouse information includes
enabled/disabled, sample rate, resolution, and mouse type.
