You can also connect the mouse and/or keyboard to the switch while the
system is powered up. When you connect a new device, the switch recognizes
it, and configures it to the settings of the currently selected computer. This
technique allows replacement of failed devices without having to restart the
system.
NOTE: When new computers are added to the switch, or when
existing connections are changed, the new configurations should be
saved in NVRAM. See “Saving the Hardware Configuration.”
