Super Administrator Setup
Overview
The KVM Over the NET
TM
switch supports three types of user, as shown in the
table, bellow:
This chapter discusses the administrative procedures that the Super
Administrator performs.
First Time Setup
Once the KVM Over the NET
TM
switch has been cabled up, the Super
Administrator needs to set the unit up for user operation. This involves setting
the network parameters and adding users. The most convenient way to do this
for the first time is from the local console.
Note: For remote methods of setting up the network, see IP Address
Determination, page 208.
After the local console has been connected (see Single Stage Installation,
page 21), and the KVM Over the NET
TM
switch turned on, a login prompt
appears on the console monitor:
