SERVSWITCH™ DUO AND SERVSWITCH™ QUADRO
5.16 Local/Remote Access Sharing in an Extended Duo/Quadro System
User port #1 on ServSwitch Duos and user ports #1 and #3 on ServSwitch Quadros
are “dual-access ports”: They have both connectors for a local user station’s
monitor, keyboard, and mouse
and
a connector for cable that can run to a remote
user station attached to a ServSwitch Duo Extender. You can install either the local
user station, the remote user station, or both; you can access the Duo/Quadro
from any installed station.
If you have both a local
and
remote station installed on a port, both stations on
that port can be used to access the Duo/Quadro. The Duo’s/Quadro’s video
output for that port will always appear on both the local and remote monitors, but
the Duo/Quadro will only accept keyboard and mouse input from one station at a
time. While either of the stations is active (sending keyboard or mouse data), the
Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs on the other station’s keyboard will
flash as shown in Figure 5-13, indicating that the inactive station doesn’t have
control. Once there has been no keyboard or mouse data from the active KVM for
the duration of the user-timeout period (see
Section 4.7.12
), the other station can
take control by sending keyboard or mouse data, and the previously active station
will become disabled.

CAUTION!
If password security is enabled, though there can be different people
manning the local and remote stations, these people will share the user
profile (user name, login, and access rights) of whichever of them is
logged in at any given time. If someone with access to a certain CPU is
logged in at one station while someone who wouldn’t normally have
access to that CPU is at the other station, the person who wouldn’t
normally have access will see the video from that CPU. Unless
automatic logout is enabled, they could even take keyboard and mouse
control of that CPU (with all of the abilities of the original user’s profile)
if the original user times out!
Also, do
not
try to run cascade links through both the local and
remote connectors of the same user port on a subsidiary Duo/Quadro.
Such installations don’t work.
