Accessing the Web Interface
Once a dial-up connection has been established, you can access the Web interface or
start a VNC session using the following IP address:
https://99.99.99.99
You can now login to the Web interface (and/or VNC session) normally. Note that the
remote machine (the one you dialed from) is automatically assigned the IP address
99.99.99.100 for the PPP session. This, and the IP address of the IP KVM, cannot be
modified. The following TCP/IP port numbers are assigned for a PPP connection,
regardless of the settings configured in the Web interface for the LAN or WAN ports:
HTTPS: 443
VNC (clear-text): 5900
VNC (SSL secured): 15900
SSH: 22
Performance Notes
• All images over the PPP connection will be grayscale to conserve bandwidth. If
other users are connected while a PPP session is active, their screens will be in
grayscale as well. When PPP is inactive, color is automatically re-enabled.
• Some areas of the screen may not be updated as frequently as others, and
animations or other auto-updating areas of the screen may appear out-of-focus
or “blocky” as a result. Since the area around the mouse pointer is refreshed most
frequently, hold the pointer over an area to improve its clarity.
• It may be beneficial to minimize any unnecessary icons, backgrounds or other
clutter on the host computer’s desktop to make the dial-up connection as efficient
as possible.
• If you need to configure the device over a serial connection while the modem
option is enabled, connect a serial cable (see immediately above for instructions on
what type of cable to use for the port you are accessing on the IP KVM) and begin
a terminal session following the instructions under Terminal Configuration Using a
Serial Cable in this manual. Once connected, you will see the following message:
Expecting a modem, if human, type admin password (Or start PPP)
Type the password for user admin and press Enter. The password will not appear on
the screen. The configuration menu will appear. Make the changes you wish or press q
and Enter to exit and leave the modem connection active.
