Specs
• A technician who needs to physically connect the unit at some place, then work at other locations
while running tests.
• A technician or manager at a remote location (perhaps a support center) who needs to see and/or
operate a unit currently in use at a subscriber site.
• Any person who might need to render the interface on another computer for training, reporting, and/or
screen capture activities.
In all cases, the PC or mobile device to be used for remote control must have a VNC client (viewer)
application installed. For more information:
• On installing a VNC viewer, see Installing a VNC client (viewer) on page 1-20.
• On VNC as a general technology, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing.
1.5.2 Installing a VNC client (viewer)
From the factory, the unit firmware includes a display driver that is ready to serve the screen to a VNC
client running on another computer. Therefore, the preliminary requirement to VNC control is the
installation of that client. The following table provides some recommendations for clients tested by
Spirent:
Table 1-6 VNC client support/installation
Note that other hardware platforms, operating systems, and/or VNC clients may also allow proper remote
control. However, is not feasible for Spirent to track and test all of them. If you would like to use a different
client, etc., you should feel free to test it and implement the solution once you are comfortable with its
reliability.
