Logging In Via The Ap Windows Client - Tripp Lite B020-U08-19-IP Owner's Manual

6. KVM Operation

6.5.2 Logging In via the AP Windows Client

In the event you do not want to connect to the KVM switch via web
browser, you can use the AP Windows Client located on the CD to provide
non-browser access to the KVM switch via a Windows computer.
Note: The AP Windows Client requires that Direct X 8.0 or higher be
installed on your computer.
1. Save the AP Windows Client from the CD to a desired location on your
Windows computer.
2. Double-click on the file, and follow the installation instructions that
follow.
3. When the installation is complete, a B020-U08-19-IP icon will be
added to your desktop, and a B020-U08-19-IP program entry will be
made in the Windows start menu. (Start > All Programs > B020-U08-
19-IP) Double-click on the icon or select the program entry in the start
menu to open the AP Windows Client.
4. If this is the first time that you are running the utility, a dialog box
appears requesting you to input your serial number. The serial number
can be found on the CD that comes with the B020-U08-19-IP. Key in
the serial number (5 characters per box), then click OK.
5. Upon entering the serial number, the AP Windows Client main screen
appears.
6. The AP Windows Client will search the network for any KVM
switches and display their Model Name and IP Address in the main
screen's Server List. If the KVM you wish to connect to is displayed
in the list, highlight it and click the Login button. If not, type in the
IP address and port number assigned to the desired KVM switch and
click the Login button. Note: The default port number assigned to the
KVM is 9000.
7. A prompt appears asking you to enter your username and password.
If accessing the KVM for the first time, enter in the username
administrator and the password password. For security purposes, it
is strongly recommended that you change the username and password
on this account to something unique.

and Change Password buttons on the main screen become active. Click
on the Remote View button to remotely connect to the KVM switch.

connected computer on the installation that you have access to is
displayed, as well as the Remote OSD. (See page 19 for details on
Remote Port Access.)
