5 Using the KVM s3 Client
Appliance Management Panel
You can manage KVM s2-0411 and KVM s3-1621 appliances using the KVM s3 Client
or the on-board web interface. This chapter applies only to the KVM s3 Client. To
manage the appliance using the on-board web interface, see "On-board Web Interface"
on page 101.
If you have an existing installation of KVM s2-0411 and KVM s3-1621 appliances that do
not support the on-board web interface, you can migrate the switches from the KVM s3
Client to the on-board web interface. To do so, follow the procedures in "Upgrading
firmware" on page 58, "Migrating appliances to the on-board web interface" on page 60,
and "Using the Resync Wizard" on page 62.

About the Appliance Management Panel

After you add an appliance in the software, you can view and configure unit parameters,
view and control active video sessions, and execute a variety of control functions. These
operations are accomplished through the Appliance Management Panel (AMP).
The AMP has three tabs: Settings, Status, and Tools, as follows:
• The Settings tab contains categories in the left portion of the tab. Categories with a
preceding plus sign (+) have subcategories. The content of the remaining area of
the panel changes according to the category or subcategory that is selected.
Settings categories include general appliance information, user accounts, SNMP,
and other unit configuration information.
• The Status tab displays information about currently active Video Viewer and virtual
media sessions. As an administrator, you can disconnect sessions from this tab.
• The Tools tab can be used to execute control functions on the appliance, such as
rebooting, saving and restoring databases, and upgrading firmware.
Some operations that you perform through the AMP trigger a message indicating that a
reboot is required in order for the change to take effect. In such cases, you can choose
to reboot immediately or wait to reboot later.
You can use the AMP to manage any FTS KVM appliance. Certain features are not
supported by the KVM series2 appliance and are noted in this section.
References to the local user refer to an OSCAR user connected to the
appliance at the local user port.
For more information about the appliance and its operations, see the corresponding
Installation and User's Guide .
