DSR Switch Connectivity
The DSR2035/8035 switching system requires connectivity to a server running the DSView 3
software. DSView 3 software allows a user to view and control target devices (one at a time)
attached to the DSR2035/8035 switching system. For more information on the DSView 3 software,
see the
DSView Installer/User Guide
.
The DSR2035/8035 switching system transmits keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) information
between operators and target devices attached to the DSR2035/8035 switch over a network using
either an Ethernet connection or a modem connection.
The DSR2035/8035 switch uses TCP/IP for communication over Ethernet. Although 10BaseT
Ethernet may be used, Avocent recommends a dedicated, switched 100BaseT network, or even a
1000BaseT network.
The DSR2035/8035 switch uses the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) for communication over a V.34,
V.90 or V.92 modem.You can perform KVM switching tasks by using one of the following:
•
the web server built into the switch
•
DSView 3 software

DSR switching systems that have the on-board web server use IP addresses to uniquely identify the
switch and the target devices. The DSR switch supports both Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) and static IP addressing. Avocent recommends that IP addresses be reserved for each
switch and that they remain static while the DSR switches are connected to the network. For
