attached target devices on the DSR switch system. You can then launch a KVM session to
open the Video Viewer and map a smart card.
NOTE: For all smart card readers, you must use a smart card capable DSR x03x model switch and a DSRIQ-VMC
module.

toolbar. The following table describes the smart card status icons.
