KVM over IP Module
4.2.2 Log out from the IP-KVM
This link logs out the current user and presents a new login screen. Please note that an automatic
logout will be performed in case there is no activity for 30 minutes.
4.3 The Remote Console
The Remote Console is the redirected screen, keyboard and mouse of the remote host system that
IP-KVM controls.
The Remote Console window is a Java Applet that tries to establish its own TCP connection to the
IP-KVM. The protocol that is running over this connection is neither HTTP nor HTTPS, but RFB
(Remote Frame Buffer Protocol). As default, RFB tries to establish a connection to TCP port
number 443. Your local network environment has to allow this connection to be made, i.e. your
firewall and, in case you have a private internal network, your NAT (Network Address Translation)
settings have to be configured accordingly.
In case the IP-KVM is connected to your local network environment and your connection to the
Internet is available using a proxy server only without NAT being configured, the Remote Console
is very unlikely to be able to establish the desired connection. This is because today's web proxies
are not capable of relaying the RFB protocol.
In case of problems, please consult your network administrator in order to provide an appropriate
networking environment.
