About Interfaces
Each node has one or more interfaces through which you can connect to the node.
To view the interfaces associated with a node
Select a node in the Nodes tab to open the Node Profile. All interfaces associated with the node
are listed in the Interfaces section.
To check an interface’s status
You can see whether an interface is available by checking the Availability column in the Node
Profile’s Interface section.
A VAILABILITY M EANING
Idle The interface is not in use.
Connected The interface is in use, but it is available to additional users.
Busy The interface is busy and cannot accept any additional users.
Note: KX 1.4 devices do not use the “Busy” Availability category, as described above. If a KX
1.4’s interface displays the “Connected” Availability category, the interface may be either
Connected or Busy.
About Connecting to Nodes
You can connect to nodes and manage them through the applications they have been configured
with. Applications include Raritan Console (RC), Raritan Serial Console (RSC), Raritan Remote
Client (RRC), Multi-Platform Client (MPC), or Virtual KVM Client. Please refer to each
application’s documentation for detailed instructions. Please refer to the Raritan KX2 User Guide
for detailed instructions on using the Virtual KVM Client. You can find these guides on the
Raritan web site in the Support section.
