Encryption
Fexible encryption alternatives for keyboard/mouse, video, and virtual media data let you choose any
combination of DES; 3DES; AES; RC4; or a Random cycle of any or all of them. Enabling encryption
affects system performance. No encryption offers the best performance. The greater the encryption the
greater the adverse effect. If you enable encryption, performance considerations are:
RC4 offers the least impact on performance; DES is next; then 3DES or AES.
The RC4 + DES combination offers the least impact of any combination.

Enable ICMP If ICMP is enabled, the KVM switch can be pinged. If it is not enabled, the device cannot be
pinged. The default is Enabled.

Authentication

Administrator access to the KVM switch by entering their username and password.
Note: Enabling this setting creates an extremely dangerous security condition, and should
only be used under very special circumstances.
