To install on Linux operating systems:

1.

Insert the CD included with KVM switch into the CD drive.

When using Red Hat and SUSE Linux distributions, the CD will usually be mounted
automatically.

Continue with step 2 if the CD mounts automatically.

If the CD does not mount automatically, issue the mount command manually. The following is
an example of a typical mount command:

mount -t iso9660 device_file mount_point

where device_file is the system-dependent device file associated with the CD and mount_point
is the directory that will be used to access the contents of the CD after it is mounted. Typical
default values include "/mnt/cdrom" and "/media/cdrom".

See the Linux operating system documentation for the specific mount command syntax to use.

2.

Open a command window and navigate to the CD. For example:

cd /mnt/cdrom

3.

Enter the following command to start the install program:

sh ./Network Access Software/linux/setup.bin

4.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

During installation

You are prompted to select the location where the application will be installed. Select an existing
path or type a directory path. The default path for Windows 2000, 2003 and XP systems is the
program files directory. The default path for Linux systems is the usr/lib directory.

If you enter a path that does not exist, the installation program automatically creates it during
installation.

You can also indicate if you want a Network Access Software icon installed on the desktop.
