Using The Client; Video Screen Redirection; Video Quality Configuration; Video Quality Option - QSSC -310DA User Manual

Note:
The KVM over IP feature described in this chapter is NOT supported by the
QSSC-310LA SKU.
KVM stands for Keyboard, Video, and Mouse. KVM over IP redirects server video screen, keyboard, and mouse
data to or from a remote console PC via a network, so that the administrator can monitor the server and control
keyboard and mouse to operate the server remotely.
KVM Client HW platform requirement: RKVM application needs CPU resource to decode the video and draw
the screen picture, so we suggest CPU Pentium4 1.8G and 512 dram to run, otherwise the Client Application will
timeout and disconnect from BMC.

Video Screen Redirection

AST2000 captures video output, compresses, and sends it to a remote console PC with encryption. The Java re-
mote KVM application on the console PC receives and displays the server's video screen. AST2000 can acquire
video source either from PCI bus as VGA mode or from external source as Video mode. Please refer to hardware
specification for more detail information about mode switching.
The redirection specifications are as follows:
•
Video Mode: Support both Text mode and Graphic mode.
•
Frame Resolution: Up to 1280x1024 @ 60Hz.
•
Frame Frequency: Up to 85Hz for other resolutions.
•
Frame Transfer Rate: More than 30 frames per second for generic operation.

ing options that the user can select them.
