[Figure 6-32. Connected Users]
Figure 6-31 displays the DKVM-IP8 activity. From left to right the connected user(s), its IP
address (from which host the user comes from) and its activity status is displayed. RC means that
the Remote Console is open. If the Remote Console is opened in exclusive mode the term
(exclusive mode) is added. For more information about this option see the Section called Remote
Console Control Bar in Chapter 5.
To display the user activity the last column contains either the term active for an active user
or 20 min idle for an user who is inactive for a certain amount of time.
Reset Functions
This section allows you to reset specific parts of the device. Currently this involves the video
engine and the DKVM-IP8 switch itself. Resetting the card itself is mainly needed to activate
a newly updated firmware. It will close all current connections to the administration console and
to the Remote Console. The whole process will take about half a minute. Resetting sub devices
(e.g. video engine) will take some seconds only and do not result in closing connections.
