Terminology
Throughout the manual we make reference to the terms
Local
and
Remote
in
regard to the operators and equipment deployed in a KVM over IP installation.
Depending on the point of view, users and servers can be considered
Local
under some circumstances, and
Remote
under others:
 Switch’s Point of View
 Remote users – We refer to a user as a
Remote
user when we think of
him as someone who logs into the switch over the net from a location
that is
remote from the switch
.
 Local Console – The keyboard mouse and monitor connected directly
to the switch.
 Servers – The servers attached to the switch via KVM Adapter Cables.
 User’s Point of View
 Local client users – We refer to a user as a
Local client user
when we
think of him as sitting at his computer performing operations on the
servers connected to the switch that are
remote from him
.
 Remote servers – We refer to the servers as
Remote servers
when we
think of them from the Local Client User’s point of view – since,
although they are locally attached to the switch, they are
remote from
him
.
When we describe the overall system architecture we are usually speaking
from the switch’s point of view – in which case the users are considered
remote. When we speak about operations users perform via the browser,
viewers, and AP programs over the net, we are usually speaking from the user’s
point of view – in which case the switch and the servers connected to it are
considered remote.
