KVM over IP
Logically, connecting to the IP-KVM using a telephone line means nothing else than
building up a dedicated point-to-point connection from your console computer to the
IP-KVM. In other words, the IP-KVM acts as an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to which
you can dial in. The connection is established using the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP).
Before you connect to the IP-KVM, make sure to configure your console computer
accordingly. For instance, on Windows based operating systems you can configure a
dial-up network connection, which defaults to the right settings like PPP.
The Modem Settings panel allows you to configure the remote access to the IP-KVM
using a modem. The meaning of each parameter will be described below. The modem
settings are part of the serial settings panel.
Serial line speed
The speed the IP-KVM is communicating with the modem. Most of all modems
available today will support the default value of 115200 bps. In case you are using an
old modem and discovering problems try to lower this speed.
Modem Init String
The initialization string used by the IP-KVM to initialize the modem. The default
value will work with all modern standard modems directly connected to a telephone
line. In case you have a special modem or the modem is connected to a local telephone
switch that requires a special dial sequence in order to establish a connection to the
public telephone network, you can change this setting by giving a new string. Refer to
the modem's manual about the AT command syntax.
Modem server IP address
This IP address will be assigned to the IP-KVM itself during the PPP handshake.
Since it is a point-to-point IP connection virtually every IP address is possible but you
must make sure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of the IP-KVM and your
console computer. The default value will work in most cases.
Modem client IP address
This IP address will be assigned to your console computer during the PPP handshake.
Since it is a point-to-point IP connection virtually every IP address is possible but you
must make sure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of the IP-KVM and your
console computer. The default value will work in most cases.
5.5.5.3 Passthrough access to serial port via Telnet/SSH
Using this option, it is possible to connect an arbitrary device to the serial port and access
it (assuming it provides terminal support) via Telnet. Select the appropriate options for the
