Enabling Direct Access to KVM Ports
When direct access to KVM ports is enabled, users authorized to access KVM
ports can use a port field on the Web Manager login screen to log in and
connect directly to the port. See “To Log In to the Web Manager as Admin”
on page 138, if desired, for an example of the login screen when direct login is
enabled.
Note: If KVM/net is configured with a Secure or Moderate Security Profile, direct
access is not permitted.
T To Enable Direct Access to KVM Ports
1. Go to Configuration>KVM>General in Expert mode.
The General form appears.
2. Select the “Direct access” check box.
3. Click “apply changes.”
Redefining KVM Connection Keyboard Shortcuts (Hot Keys)
You can use the General, User 1, User 2, and IP Users forms to redefine a
default set of keyboard shortcuts (called hot keys), which allow administrators
to perform common actions while connected to KVM ports. You redefine the
common escape sequence portion of each hot key separately from the
command key.
Port Authentication Allows you to choose an
authentication method for “Direct
Access” only.
Note: To enable the port
authentication drop-down menu,
activate the “Direct Access”
option.
