SDT Connector can connect to the Console Server using an alternate OoB access. It can also be
configured to access the Console Server itself and to access devices connected to serial ports on the
Console Server.

6.2.1 SDT Connector client installation

The SDT Connector set up program (SDTConnector Setup-1.n.exe or sdtcon-1.n.tar.gz) is

included on the CD supplied with your Console Server

Run the set-up program:

Note

For Windows clients, the SDTConnectorSetup-1.n.exe application will install the SDT Connector

1.n.exe and the config file defaults.xml. If a config file already exists on the Windows computer,
then it will not be overwritten. To remove an earlier config file, run the regedit command, search
for “SDT Connector” and then remove the directory with this name.

For Linux and other Unix clients, SDTConnector.tar.gz application will install the sdtcon-1.n.jar
and the config file defaults.xml

Once the installer completes, you will have a working SDT Connector client installed on your machine
and an icon on your desktop:

Click the SDT Connector icon on your desktop to start the client

Note

SDT Connector is a Java application so it must have a Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
installed. This can be freely downloaded from http://java.sun.com/j2se/ . It will install on
Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista computers and on most Linux platforms. Solaris platforms are
also supported however they must have Firefox installed. SDT Connector can run on any
system with Java 1.4.2 and above installed, but it assumes the web browser is Firefox, and that
xterm -e Telnet opens a Telnet window
