system will use the viewer according to the
viewer list.
• The top-most method is the most
preferred method and is listed as #1 (Web
Client by default).
• If the preferred method is supported when
connecting to a port, the system will try
connecting using the preferred method.
• If the method is not supported, the system
will try connecting using the next method,
and try the last method last.
