The Spider device provides a powerful capability called Virtual Media (or Virtual Disk). Using the USB port, the Spider device can present either a local floppy disk image or a redirected remote CD-ROM image to the target computer. This can allow system recovery in conditions as bad as having local disks down and no primary network connection.
Warning: Clearing the Force read-only connections check box may result in file system errors and data corruption because of drive caching when data is written back to the Redirected local drive. Spider™ and SpiderDuo® KVM-over-IP Device User Guide...
Image on Windows Share In this section of the page, you can enable the Spider device to access a CD-ROM image up to 4.7 GB on a Windows shared folder via SAMBA. The Spider device then makes that image accessible to the target computer by emulating a USB disk drive.
The maximum image size is 1.44 MB. For larger images, use the CD-ROM Image function. The image file remains in Spider device until the current user logs out, or the device is rebooted. Other client systems logging into the Spider device will also see the active image in all Virtual Media pages.

Click Reset to restore original settings. Remote Authentication If the authentication settings have been set to Local Authentication (the default), the Spider device uses its own database to perform authentication. If one of the remote authentication protocols is selected, the Spider device communicates with a remote server to authenticate user passwords.
Directory or generic LDAP server for user authentication. The user profile must be set up in the local database as described in Local User Management, but no password is stored locally. When a user attempts to log in, the Spider device contacts the specified LDAP server, which either approves or denies access.
When RADIUS is selected, the Spider device communicates with a RADIUS server for user authentication. To access a Spider device set up for RADIUS, log in with a name and password. The Spider device contacts the RADIUS server for authentication and, if approved, the Spider device uses the locally stored user profile.
Date/Time The Spider device contains an internal real time clock that maintains a basic date and time after being set. The clock, however, will reset if the unit loses power. If an accurate date and time are critical, the Spider device supports synchronization with Network Time Protocol servers. Internally, the date and time are only used to timestamp events in the log and for the inactivity timeout.
User Specified Time Manually input the current date and time. The Spider device keeps time as long as power is applied. It has an internal calendar, but does not know about daylight savings time and requires resetting twice a year. The internal clock accuracy is ±30 ppm.
Field Description KVM Encryption In addition to the SSL encryption of the Spider device’s web pages, the keyboard, mouse, and video data may be encrypted. Select Off to use no encryption. Select Try for the Spider device to attempt to make an encrypted connection but will back off to unencrypted if one cannot be established.
