Configuration

2. Modify the number of minutes in the “Idle Timeout” field, and the number

of seconds in the “Cycle Time” field, if desired. The default is 3 minutes
and 5 seconds respectively.

3. In the “TCP Viewer Ports” field change the TCP port number used by the

AlterPath Viewer, if required.

4. Check the appropriate radio button for no encryption (Level 0), keyboard

and mouse data encryption (Level 1), or video, keyboard, and mouse data
encryption (Level 2).

If you select Level 2 encryption and make a KVM connection, the "No
Encryption" option under the “Connection” drop-down menu in the
AlterPath Viewer will be greyed-out. In case of Level 1 encryption, the
keyboard and mouse are disabled when you select "No Encryption" from
the Connection drop-down menu in the AlterPath Viewer.

The encryption level is enabled by the system administrator. The user will
not be able to turn off encryption.

Note: 3DES encryption can be selected for a video session. RC4 is the default

encryption if 3DES is not selected.

5. To change any of the command key portions of KVM hot key

combinations, enter a different letter in the “Quit,” “Power Management,”
“Mouse/Keyboard Reset,” “Video Control,” “Switch Next,” “Switch
Previous,” or “Port Info” fields.

6. Click “apply changes” to complete the procedure.

Note: Your firewall and proxies may require reconfiguration. Check to make sure

that your host can reach the KVM Web Manager and TCP Viewer ports using
its assigned IP address.
