Connecting local virtual media
Connecting virtual media directly to the AutoView 2030 switch via a USB port allows users to
view, move or copy data between any attached target device and a USB media device connected to
the AutoView switch.
Use virtual media to remotely connect and access USB external hard drives, CD-rom drives or USB
Flash drives through the AutoView switch to each target device.
Virtual media also allows you to seamlessly perform BIOS updates, boot targets from a USB drive
and back up data on target devices, all from your local connection.
