Appendix B: Glossary
• AMIQ module (AMX Switch Intelligent Module) - The AMIQ module connects a target
device to an AMX switch.
• AMIQDM module (AMX Switch Intelligent Module Dual Port/Multimedia) - The AMIQDM
module has two RJ45 ports and can connect a target device to one or two AMX switches or to
one or two ports on the same AMX switch. The AMIQDM module can also support
multimedia (audio and serial) features.
• Cascading - A method of configuring matrix switches in an AMX switch system configuration
to provide a user access to a much larger set of target devices than can be provided through a
single matrix switch.
• Configuration - A grouping of all AMX switch networkable system components (AMWorks
software and matrix switches) having the same configuration ID.
• Configuration ID - A group of resources associated with a particular user station under
connection conditions.
• Console Resource Group (CRG) - A group of resources associated with a particular user
station under connection conditions.
• Crosspoint - The switch from input to output executed by a router.
• Default Resource Group (DRG) - A group of resources associated with a particular user station
under disconnect conditions.
• Discovery - The mechanism used by AMWorks software to automatically determine the matrix
switches on the AMX switching system configuration.
• Index - An incrementing number used to relate TRG entries to CRG entries in the resource
routers table.
• LDAP (Lightweight Directory Authorization Protocol) - A network used to authenticate a user.
• Level - A group of input ports and output ports of the same type. Partition is another name
for level.
• Local discovery - Automatic discovery of devices that exist on the same physical network
segment and on the same subnet as AMWorks software. The devices must have the same
configuration ID as AMWorks software.
• Matrix switch - A device that provides matrix switch connectivity from user ports to
server ports.
• Merge synchronization - A synchronization method which merges all existing individual
databases residing on AMWorks software and on the matrix switches and re-distributes the
new database.
• Multimedia - Refers to the audio and serial feature supported by the AMX switching system
through the AMX5130 user station and AMIQDM module.
• Multiple Device Mode (MDM) - The device mode used to configure an MDM-capable device
for seamless cascading of servers attached to KVM switches cascaded below the AMX switch.
