SSH Server Enables/disables the SSH server and specifies the port it uses.

Trap

Destinations

The DSView 3 server polls KVM switches or serial console appliances to determine if they

are responding. If the managed appliance does not respond, the DSView 3 server sends an

SNMP Loss Of Communication (LCM) trap or alert to the external SNMP manager. When

the DSView 3 server detects that the appliance is once again communicating, a Regained

Communication (RCM) trap is sent from the DSView 3 software server. When a response

change occurs during communication between the DSView 3 server and a managed

appliance, the DSView 3 software writes the event to the event log and sends an SNMP trap

to the configured trap destinations. Trap destinations may also be specified by clicking on a

managed appliance and changing the SNMP appliance settings.
