Note:
The U8/16-IP has its own independent real time clock. Make sure the time setting of
the U8/16-IP switch is correct. (See the Section called Date and Time on page 63)
Enable Dynamic DNS
Enables the Dynamic DNS service. This requires a configured DNS server IP address.
Dynamic DNS server
This is the server name where the U8/16-IP registers itself in regular intervals. At the time of
writing, this is a fixed setting since only dyndns.org is currently supported.
Hostname
This is the hostname of the U8/16-IP that is provided by the Dynamic DNS Server. (Use the
whole name including the domain,
e.g. testserver.dyndns.org
not just the actual hostname).
Username
You have registered this username during your manual registration with the Dynamic DNS
Server. Spaces are not allowed in the nickname.
Password
The password used during manual registration with the Dynamic DNS Server.
Check time
The U8/16-IP registers itself in the Dynamic DNS server at this time.
Check interval
This is the interval for reporting again to the Dynamic DNS server by the U8/16-IP.

Security
Force HTTPS
If this option is enabled, access to the web front-end is only possible using an HTTPS
connection. The U8/16-IP will not listen on the HTTP port for incoming connections.
If you want to create your own SSL certificate that is used to identify the U8/16-IP please refer
to the section called Certificate on page 58.
KVM encryption
This option controls the encryption of the RFB protocol. RFB is used by the Remote Console to
transmit both the screen data to the administrator’s machine and the keyboard and mouse data
back to the host. If set to "Off" no encryption will be used. If set to "Try", the applet will attempt
to establish an encrypted connection. If connection establishment fails for any reason an
unencrypted connection will be used. If set to Force the applet tries to make an encrypted
connection. An error will be reported if connection establishment fails.
