Repairing damaged firmware

You may only recover from a failed firmware upgrade when using IPv4
mode.
In the rare case that the firmware is damaged after a firmware upgrade (which might
happen if the KVM s3-1621 appliance is turned off and turned on during the upgrade
process), the KVM s3-1621 appliance will remain in boot mode. In this mode, the Power
LED on the rear panel flashes at about 1 Hz, and the KVM s3-1621 appliance attempts
to restore the firmware over TFTP using the following default configuration:
• TFTP client IP address 10.0.0.2
• TFTP target device IP address 10.0.0.3
• Upgrade file name equal to CMN-XXXX.fl, where XXXX is the 4-digit Compliance
Model Number (CMN) that is printed on the agency label of the appliance and place
it into the TFTP root directory of the TFTP server.
To repair damaged firmware:
Connect the KVM s3-1621 appliance to the TFTP target device (using a cross-over
cable or hub), which is set up with the default IP address (10.0.0.3).
Rename the upgrade file to the default file name (CMN-XXXX-.fl).
The Power LED will flash at about 2 Hz when the KVM s3-1621 appliance is
downloading the upgrade file, and it will flash at about 4 Hz when it is programming the
downloaded file to Flash. After it has restored the firmware, the KVM s3-1621 appliance
reboots automatically and the Power LED illuminates.

Virtual media

5.2.1

Virtual media and USB 2.0 constraints

The virtual media feature of the KVM s3-1621 appliances enable you to connect to the
USB port of an attached computer. With this feature, a user located at a KVM s3-1621
appliance or using the remote software can access a local USB storage switch, such as
a USB CD drive, diskette drive, or Flash drive, from an attached computer.
The Virtual Media KVM-IA addresses four functions: keyboard, mouse, CD drive, and
mass storage unit. The CD drive and mass storage unit will be present on the target
server whether or not a virtual media session is mapped. If a media device is not
mapped, it is shown without media present. When a virtual media device is mapped to
the target server, the target server will be notified that media has been inserted. When
