Configuration

Initial configuration

The initial configuration occurs as two distinct parts:

Part  – Local configuration
This part of the configuration takes place using the locally
connected keyboard and video monitor. It allows you to set up
key basic details, network essentials, modem/ISDN parameters
and security key creation.

Unit config screen

Allows you to determine a mixture
of basic and fundamental setup
details such as the keyboard layout,
admin password, time and date.

Network config screen

Requires you to configure the
various key aspects of the IP
network port addressing.

Modem config screen

Allows you to optionally alter the
current settings for the serial port that
is used to connect a modem or ISDN
terminal adapter. The IP addresses are
used to emulate a two-port network
connection and are suitable for most
situations.

Secure keys screen

This screen uses your mouse
movements or keyboard inputs
to create random data. This
unpredictable information is then
combined with several other
factors to develop the basis of the
encryption keys that are used to
establish secure remote links.

Part  – Remote configuration
This part of the configuration takes place using a remote connection
(network or dial-up modem/ISDN). It allows fine tuning of the part 1
configuration items plus the creation of multiple user accounts and
host details. Go to

Part 2 - Remote configuration

.

Part 1 – Local configuration

When you switch on the LINDY KVM IP unit for the first time it will
take you (using the locally connected keyboard and video monitor)
through a set up sequence consisting of four main screens:

Controlling the local configuration menus
The local menus use only the keyboard. Use the
keyboard arrow keys to move the green highlight
indicator to the required position. Then, either type the
required information or use the left and right arrows to
change multiple choice items, as appropriate.

Problems?

The LINDY KVM IP asks for an unknown admin password
The LINDY KVM IP does not display the configuration sequence
