Virtual Media
All KSX II models support virtual media. The benefits of virtual media -
mounting of remote drives/media on the target server to support software
installation and diagnostics - are now available in all of the KSX II
models. Virtual media sessions can be secured by using 128-bit and
256-bit AES or RC4 encryption.
Each KSX II comes equipped with virtual media to enable remote
management tasks using the widest variety of CD, DVD, USB, internal
and remote drives, and images. Unlike other solutions, the KSX II
supports virtual media access of hard drives and remotely mounted
images for added flexibility and productivity.
The new D2CIM-VUSB and D2CIM-DVUSB CIMs (computer interface
module) support virtual media sessions to KVM target servers supporting
the USB 2.0 interface. This new CIM also supports Absolute Mouse
Synchronization as well as remote firmware updates.
Note: The black connector on the DVUSB CIM is used for keyboard and
mouse. The gray connector is used for virtual media. Keep both plugs of
the CIM connected to the device. The device may not operate properly if
both plugs are not connected to the target server.
