KVM Switch User Guide 2-1611
4 Operations
4.1 Controlling Your System at the Analog Port
The KVM s2-1611 includes an analog port on the back of the unit that allows you
to connect a monitor and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse for direct analog access.
The appliance uses OSCAR®, the On-Screen Conguration and Activity Report-
ing interface, which utilizes intuitive menus to congure your system and select
computers.
4.2 Viewing and Selecting Ports and Servers
Use the OSCAR Main dialog box to view, congure and control servers in the KVM
s2-1611 system. View your servers by name, port or by the unique Electronic ID
number (EID) embedded in each KVM s2-Adapter. You will see an OSCAR-gener-
ated port list by default when you rst launch OSCAR.
The Port column indicates the RI port to which a server is connected. If you con-
nect a legacy KVM switch to the appliance, the port numbering displays the RI port
rst, then the switch port to which the server is connected. For example, in Figure
5, servers 06-03 and 01-02 are connected to switches.
4.2.1 Accessing the Main dialog box
