Simultaneous Server Connections
The KVM/net supports a maximum of 6 concurrent server connections. Up to
two connections are supported either locally or remotely over Ethernet. Up to
4 connections can be inband depending on whether a KVM-over-IP
connection is being made. The types of user connections that can be made are
explained below:
• Local users include:
• One local user at the KVM/net (User 1).
• One remote user at the AlterPath KVM RP location (User 2).
• IP users include:
• KVM – The KVM/net supports two KVM-over-IP connections.
• Inband – KVM/net supports up to four concurrent in-band connections
depending on the number of KVM-over-IP connections being made.
Since the maximum total IP connections is four, if one KVM-over-IP
connection is being made, only three in-band connections can be made at
that time.
