The 4x1 DPKVM Switcher supports also IP-based control using Telnet. To set up IP
control, the network settings for the 4x1 DPKVM Switcher must be configured via RS-232.
The default network settings for the switcher are as follows:
Description IP Address / Port Description IP Address / Port
IP Address
192.168.1.72
Telnet Port
23
Subnet
255.255.255.0
Gateway
192.168.1.254
HTTP Port
80
1. Connect an RS-232 cable from the PC to the 4x1 DPKVM Switcher . Also make sure
that an Ethernet cable is connected between the switcher and the network.
2. Launch a terminal emulation program (e.g. HyperTerminal) and use the RS-232
settings listed on the previous page.
3. Set the IP address for the switcher using the
#sipadd
command.
4. Set the subnet mask using the
#snetmask
command.
5. Set the gateway (router) IP address using the #sgateway command.
6. Set the Telnet listening port using the #set_telnet_port command.
7. Set the HTTP listening port using the #set_http_port command.
8. Reboot the switcher to apply all changes, then type the IP address that was
specified in step 3, in the Telnet client to access the switcher.
NOTE: Depending upon the network, all related IP / Telnet settings
will need to be assigned. Consult your network administrator to
obtain the proper settings.
