Cycle Using a Hot Key Sequence
Users can use hot keys to move from viewing one server to another while
connected to a KVM port either through the OSD or the Web Manager. See
“To Connect to the Next Authorized KVM Port” on page 98 and “To Connect
to the Previous KVM Port from the Current KVM Port” on page 98.
Sharing KVM Port Connections
Two authorized users can connect simultaneously to a single KVM port.
When the first user is in read-only mode, the new user is always granted the
highest level of access for which the new user is authorized. Once two users
are connected to a KVM port, either user may choose at any time to change
the access mode or disconnect from the session by issuing a hot key or Esc.
KVM Port Sharing Menu Options
When a user connects to a KVM port that is already in use, a screen with a
menu of two or more options appears. The following figure shows two options
that are always on the menu.
