Link aggregation
Both interfaces are combined into a group via link aggregation . Within a group, only
one interface is active at a time. Another interface only becomes active if the active
interface fails.
Two different modes are available for monitoring the interfaces:
 MII mode:
The carrier status of the network interface is monitored via the
media
independent interface
überwacht. In this mode, only the functionality of the network is
tested.

ARP mode: Using the address resolution protocol , requests are sent to an ARP target on
the network. The response from the ARP target confirms both the functionality of
the network interface and a proper network connection to the ARP target.
If the ARP target is connected to the network but temporarily offline, the requests
cannot be answered. For this reason, you should determine several ARP targets in
order to obtain a response from at least one target even if an ARP target fails.
How to configure the settings of grouped network interfaces:
1. Open the remote OSD of the computer module by pressing the
remote hotkey
(default:
Ctrl+Num
), if you want to change the configuration of the computer
module.
Open the local OSD of the console module by pressing the
local hotkey
(default:
Alt+Num
), if you want to change the configuration of the console module.
2. Select the row
Network setup
and press
Enter
(remote OSD) or
F11
, select the row
Net-
work
and press
Enter
(local OSD).
3. Select the row
Link aggregation
and press
Enter
.
IMPORTANT: To increase reliability, you can enable the
Transmission 2
interface of
the KVM extender with the
Transm. Redundancy
feature, which is available for a fee.
NOTE: It is not possible to combine
MII
and
ARP mode
.
NOTE: The
Link Local
address space 169.254.0.0/16 is reserved for internal com-
munication between devices in accordance with RFC 3330. It is not possible to
assign an IP address of this address space.
