Sun Microsystems J ava Browser Plugin

Instructs the web browser of your administration system to use the JVM of Sun Microsystems.

The JVM in the browser is used to run the code for the Remote Console window, which is

actually a Java Applet. If you check this box for the first time on your administration system

and the appropriate Java plug-in is not already installed on your system, it will be downloaded

on your administration machine. The software is available on the CD ROM that is

delivered along with the DKVM-IP8 switch.)

pressed in the Remote Console, or is used to leave the single mouse mode.

Remote Console Button Keys

Button Keys allow simulating keystrokes on the remote system that cannot be generated locally.

The reason for this might be a missing key or the fact, that the local operating system of the
