CHAPTER 4: Full Configuration
4.4 Configuring User Stations
Using the “Configure KVM” page, you can assign names to your keyboard/video/
mouse user stations, choose stations’ default resolutions and refresh rates, choose
startup computers, and enable or disable login procedures. If a login is not
required, you can also assign “user profiles” to given stations (see Section 4.6).
Figure 4-6. The “Configure KVM” page.
Here are the station-configuration parameters:
ID
The “ID” field contains the unique “communication ID” number assigned to the
user station in the ServSwitch Affinity system. This value isn’t changeable through
this menu; the Affinity system will automatically calculate it based on the chassis’
starting computer number and the number of the chassis slot that the station’s
user port’s Port Card is installed in. The system recalculates this number when Port
Cards are moved to different slots or the chassis’ starting computer number is
changed.
Bus
The “Bus” field contains the station’s “video bus” number KVM n (the video path
that the station is assigned to). In Affinity systems with 4-User units only, this number
can’t be changed. It will always be either “1,” “2,” “3,” or “4” (KVM 1, 2, 3, or 4)
depending on which slot in the Affinity chassis the station’s Port Card is installed in.
