When the access mode is read-only, the user will not be able to write data to the mapped drive
on the client machine. When the access mode is read-write, the user will be able to read and
write data to the mapped drive.
If the drive is a read-only drive (for example, CD/DVD drives or ISO images), the access mode
setting will be ignored. If the drive on the client machine is read-write (for example, a mass
storage device or USB removal media), setting read-only access mode will prevent the user
from writing data to the client machine.
6. In the Encryption Level area, enable one or more encryption levels for the virtual media
session: DES, 3DES, 128-Bit SSL or AES. Any combination of selections (or no selection)
is valid.
7. Click Save and then click Close. The Units View window will open.
Defining exit macros
Since clients are running remotely on PCs, certain commands must be sent to the controlled target
device using keyboard macros. For example, pressing
PC running the client rather than resetting the target device. To reset the target device, a macro is
needed. The DSView 3 management software provides numerous sequences pre-configured for
ease of operation.
Three kinds of macros are available: personal, global and exit. Personal macros and global macros
are created using the Video Viewer window. See Macros on page 214.
Exit macros are supported on DS1800 digital switches and the following DSR switches: DSR1010,
1021, 1022, 1024, 1030, 1031, 2010, 2020, 2030, 2035, 4010, 4020, 4030, 8020, 8030 and
8035 switches.
Exit macros allow software administrators to create a macro that returns a target device to a known
state. They reside on the managed appliances and are executed whenever a DSView 3 software
session is terminated. For example, if a user is connected to a target device and the user closes the
Video Viewer session, an exit macro may be executed that resets the target device to a known state
by logging the user out of the target device session.
Exit macros may be created and maintained by any user with Configure Unit Settings access rights.
Different groups of exit macros may be created for each managed appliance in your system.
To define exit macros:
1. In a Units View window containing appliances (see Accessing Units View windows on
page 88), click on the appliance name.
2. Click Appliance Settings in the side navigation bar and then click Sessions. The Appliance
Sessions window will open.
3. Click Exit Macros in the side navigation bar. The Appliance Exit Macros window will open.
4. Click the number of a macro. The Appliance Exit Macro Settings window will open.
5. Enter a unique description for the global macro in the Name field.
