Once a dialup connection has been established, you can access the Web interface
or start a VNC session using the following IP address:
https://99.99.99.99
Log into the Web interface (and/or VNC session) normally. The remote machine
(the one you dialed from) is automatically assigned the IP address 99.99.99.100 for
the PPP session. You can’t modify the remote PC’s or the ServSwitch unit’s IP
addresses. The following TCP/IP port numbers are assigned for a PPP connection,
regardless of the settings configured in the Web interface for the LAN port:
HTTPS: 443
VNC (clear-text): 5900
VNC (SSL secured): 15900
SSH: 22
E.3 Performance Notes
• All images over the PPP connection will be grayscale to conserve bandwidth. If
other users are connected while a PPP session is active, their screens will be in
grayscale as well. When PPP is inactive, color is automatically re-enabled.
• Some areas of the screen may not be updated as frequently as others, and
animations or other auto-updating areas of the screen may appear out-of-focus
or “blocky” as a result. Since the area around the mouse pointer refreshes most
frequently, hold the pointer over an area to improve its clarity.
• You might want to minimize any unnecessary icons, backgrounds, or other
clutter on the managed computer’s desktop to make the dial-up connection as
efficient as possible.
• To use serial configuration, you must disable the modem feature and
reconnect the serial port on the ServSwitch to the managed computer’s port.
