Favorites

Favorites is similar to a bookmarks feature. Frequently visited ports can be listed on this page. Open this page and select the port
instead of searching for it in the tree view. This feature is especially useful for larger, cascaded installations. Note: Each Favorites
bookmark that you create is a folder in which multiple ports can be saved.
Adding a Favorite
To add a port to Favorites, do the following:
1. Right click in the main panel and click on the Add Favorite
option that appears. An entry appears named Untitled
Favorite.
2. Click inside the text entry box to erase Untitled Favorite and
key in the desired name.
3. To add a port, drag it from the Port Select list and drop it
into the Favorites bookmark you just created. You can also
add a port by right-clicking on it and selecting Copy. After
copying, right-click on the Favorites bookmark and select
Paste. The KVM switch the port is connected to goes into
the Favorites bookmark along with the port. The port is
located under the switch, as it would be in the tree view on
the left-hand panel.
Note: Right-clicking on a port that is already in a Favorites bookmark
will give you the option to cut the port out of that bookmark and paste it
into another Favorites bookmark.
4. Repeat step 3 for any other ports you want to add to your
Favorites bookmark.
