performance analysis, security and configuration control. It enables enterprises to take inventory,

DSR
®
switches
DSR switches allow KVM signals to be transmitted over a standard TCP/IP network connection.
Some DSR switches may be connected using a modem, which provides benefits for branch offices
such as low cost and dial-up performance.
The DSView 3 software supports the following DSR switch models:
800, 1010, 1020*, 1021*, 1022*, 1024*, 1030*, 1031*, 1161, 2010, 2020*, 2030*, 2035*,
2161, 4010, 4020*, 4030*, 4160, 8020*, 8030*, 8035*
*These models contain a dedicated serial port for connecting an external modem for use with
the DSR Remote Operations software.
For DSR switches, a target device is first attached to an IQ module, which is then attached to a DSR
switch. DSView 3 software clients communicate with target device ports using a Video Viewer
connection between the client and the managed appliance.
The DSR switches allow the cascading of legacy analog KVM switches from DSR switch ports,
which may be managed in a DSView 3 software system. Certain DSR switch models also allow the
cascading of another switch. For more information, see the DSR Switch Installer/User Guide.
NOTE: PEM cascade devices are not supported.
MergePoint
®
52xx service processor (SP) manager
The MergePoint 52xx service processor manager is a secure, centralized enterprise management
solution for target devices equipped with IPMI, HP iLO and Dell DRAC service processors. You
can use the DSView 3 software to access, monitor and control the MergePoint 52xx SP manager
and attached target devices.
The MergePoint 52xx SP manager provides a standardized interface independent of the
management protocols used to manage each target device. Management operations can be
performed either by using commands or scripts over a Telnet or SSH version 2 session or by using
the appliance’s web interface from a standard web browser.
For more information, see the MergePoint 52xx appliance plug-in documentation.
Cyclades OnSite branch office appliance
OnSite branch office appliances may be used to access multiple traditional or headless servers,
networking devices, infrastructure components or any other device with a serial console or KVM
port. You can use the DSView 3 software to access, monitor and control the OnSite appliance and
attached target devices. For more information, see the OnSite appliance plug-in documentation.
Virtual environments
The DSView 3 management software plug-in for Virtualization allows you to access and control
virtual machines from the DSView 3 software. Supported unit types include VMware
