1. Product overview

1.1 About Fujitsu KVMs4 Client Software

With Fujitsu®KVMs4 client software, a cross-platform management application,

you can add and manage multiple switches and attached target devices. The

cross-platform design offers compatibility with most commonly-used operating

systems and hardware platforms. Each switch handles authentication and access

control individually, placing system control at the point of need.

The software utilizes browser-like navigation with a split-screen interface,

providing you with a single point of access for all switches. Use the software to

manage existing switches, install a new target device, or open a session to a

target device. Built-in groupings such as Devices, Sites, and Folders provide a

way to select the units to view. Use the search and sort capabilities to find any

unit.

1.2 Features and benefits

Easy to install and configure

Wizard-based installation and online help simplify initial system configuration.

You can use the graphical interface to manage and update switches, target

devices, and adapter cables.

Powerful customization capabilities

You can tailor the software to fit specific system needs, using built-in groups or

creating your own. You can customize unit names, field names, and icons for

maximum flexibility and convenience. Use names that are meaningful to you to

quickly find any target device.

Extensive switch management

The KVMs4 switch firmware includes an integrated web interface that can be

used for configuring KVMs4 switches and configuring and accessing connected

target devices. You can add and manage multiple switches in one system with

the software. After a new switch is added, you can configure operating

parameters, control and preempt user sessions to target devices, and execute

numerous control functions, such as rebooting and upgrading the switch. You

can enable Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps, configure target

devices, and manage user databases.

You can use the software to manage the following Fujitsuswitches:

590-1059-640A 1

1. Product overview

• KVMs4-0812 switch: The KVMs4-0812 switch includes a digital port for

KVM-over-IP access, 8 ARI ports for connecting adapter cables and target

devices, adds a second dedicated local path for the ACI port, smart card

support, two power receptacles, and one VGA and four USB ports, virtual

media capability for two local users and one remote user.

• KVMs4-1622 switch: The KVMs4-1622 switch includes two digital ports for

KVM-over-IP access, 16 ARI ports for connecting adapter cables and target

devices, adds a second dedicated local path for the ACI port, smart card

support, two power receptacles, and one VGA and four USB ports, virtual

media capability for two local users and up to two remote users.

• KVMs4-3242 switch: The KVMs4-3242 switch includes four digital ports for

KVM-over-IP access, 32 ARI ports for connecting adapter cables and target

devices, adds a second dedicated local path for the ACI port, smart card

support, two power receptacles, and one VGA and four USB ports, virtual

media capability for two local users and up to four remote users.

Authentication and authorization

Administrators can configure each switch either to use local user databases on

the switch or to use databases on an LDAP server for user authentication and

authorizations checking. Local authentication is always used, either as the

primary authentication method or as a fallback method when LDAP

authentication is configured.

The switch can be configured to use LDAP for authentication only with the local

databases used for authorizations checking.

After users log in to a switch, the software caches their credentials (user name

and password) for the duration of the session.

1.3 System components

The software contains the following major components.

Explorer

The Explorer is the primary point of control for accessing the software features

and functionality. From the Explorer, you can view the switches and target

devices defined in the local database. Built-in groupings such as Appliances and

Devices provide different ways to list units. You can create custom groups of units

by adding and naming folders. Other groupings are also available, based on

custom fields that you can assign to units.

590-1059-640A

1.4 Operating features

From the Explorer Devices list, you can select a device from the list of target

devices and start a KVM session with the device. Starting a KVM session brings

up a Video Viewer. From the Explorer Appliances list, you can select a switch to

configure.

Video Viewer

Users access and manage target devices through the Video Viewer. You can use

predefined macros and choose which macro group is displayed on the Video

Viewer Macros menu. You can open the Video Viewer to connect to target

devices on KVMs4 switches. For more details, see "About the Video Viewer" on

page 41

The Video Viewer also provides access to the Virtual Media window. You can

use the Virtual Media window to map a physical drive, such as a disk, CD-ROM,

or DVD-ROM data drive, onto a target device so that the media device is

available to the target device even though it is not directly connected. For more

information on the Virtual Media window, see "Using virtual media" on page 60.

1.4 Operating features

"Keyboard and mouse shortcuts" on page 71 lists the Explorer navigation

shortcuts. Other components also support full keyboard navigation in addition to

mouse operations.

1.5 Target device naming

The KVMs4 client software requires that each switch and target device have a

unique name. To minimize the need for operator intervention, the software uses

the following procedure to generate a unique name for a target device whose

current name conflicts with another name in the database.

During background operations (such as an automated operation that adds or

modifies a name or connection), if a name conflict occurs, the conflicting name is

automatically made unique. This is done by appending a tilde (~) followed by an

optional set of digits. The digits are added in cases where adding the tilde alone

does not make the name unique. The digits start with a value of one and are

incremented until a unique name is created.

During operations, if you or another user specifies a non-unique name, a

message informs the corresponding user that a unique name is required.

1. Product overview

Target device name displays

When a switch is added, the target device names retrieved from the switch are

stored in the software database. The operator can then rename a target device in

the Explorer. The new name is stored in the database and used in various

component screens. This new target device name is not communicated to the

switch.

Since the software is a decentralized management system, you can change the

name assigned to a target device on the switch at any time without updating the

software database. Each operator can customize a particular view of the list of

target devices being managed.

Since you can associate more than one name with a single target device - one on

the switch and one in the software - the software uses the following rules to

determine which name is used:

• The Explorer only shows the target devices listed in its database, with the

name specified in the database. In other words, the Explorer does not talk to

the switch to obtain target device information.

• The Resync Wizard overwrites locally-defined target device names only if the

switch target device name has been changed from the default value. Non-

default target device names that are read from the switch during a

resynchronization override the locally-defined names.

Sorting

In certain displays, the software component displays a list of items with columns

of information about each item. If a column header contains an arrow, you can

sort the list by that column in ascending or descending order.

To sort a display by a column header, click the arrow in a column header. The

items in the list are sorted according to that column. An upward-pointing arrow

indicates the list is sorted by that column header in ascending order. A

downward-pointing arrow indicates the list is sorted by that column header in

descending order.

IPv4 and IPv6 network address capabilities

The KVMs4 client software is compatible with systems using either of the

currently supported Internet Protocol Versions, IPv4 (default) or IPv6. For KVMs4

switches, you can change the network settings and select IPv4 and IPv6 mode

simultaneously.
