IP Installer

The IP Installer is an external Windows-based utility for assigning IP addresses

to the KVM Over the NET™ switch.

Click one of the radio buttons to select Enable, View Only, or Disable for the

IP Installer utility. See IP Installer, page 257, for IP Installer details.

Note: 1. If you select View Only, you will be able to see the KVM Over the

NET™ switch in the IP Installer’s Device List, but you will not be

able to change the IP address.

2. For security, we strongly recommend that you set this to View Only

or Disable after each use.

Service Ports

As a security measure, if a firewall is being used, the Administrator can specify

the port numbers that the firewall will allow. If a port other than the default is

used, users must specify the port number as part of the IP address when they

Over the NET™ switch will not be found. An explanation of the fields is given

in the table below:

Note: 1. Valid entries for all of the Service Ports are from 1–65535.

2. Service ports cannot have the same value. You must set a different

value for each one.

3. If there is no firewall (on an Intranet, for example), it doesn’t matter

what these numbers are set to, since they have no effect.
