F6 BRC:

F6 is an Administrator only function. When this function is in effect,
commands sent from the console are broadcast to all available computers on
the installation.

This function is particularly useful for operations that need to be performed
on multiple computers, such as performing a system wide shutdown,
installing or upgrading software, etc.

BRC works in conjunction with the F2 LIST function. The LIST function
(see p. 29), is used to broaden or narrow the focus of which Ports appear on
the OSD Main Screen. When you Broadcast a command, it only goes to the
Ports currently selected to be listed on the OSD Main Screen.

w

While BRC Mode is in effect, a Speaker symbol appears before the Port
ID Display of the port that currently has the console focus.

w

While BRC Mode is in effect, the mouse will not function normally. You
must exit BRC Mode in order to regain control of the mouse.

w

To exit BRC Mode, invoke the OSD (with the OSD Hotkey), then Click
the F6 field, or press [F6], to turn BRC Mode off.
