3 LOCAL AND REMOTE CONFIGURATION

3.1 The User Interfaces

The MergePoint Unity switch for Dell comes equipped with two “point-and-click” interfaces: a local user

interface (local UI) and a remote on-board web interface (OBWI). Using the configuration options provided

by these interfaces, you can tailor the switch to your specific application, control any attached devices

and handle all basic KVM or serial switching needs.

NOTE: The local UI and remote OBWI are almost identical. Unless specified, all information in this

chapter applies to both interfaces.

From either interface, you can launch two different kinds of sessions:

•

The KVM Video Viewer window allows you to control the keyboard, monitor and mouse

functions of individual target devices connected to the switch in real time. You may also use

predefined global macros to perform actions within the Video Viewer window. For instructions

on how to use the Video Viewer, see

KVM Video Viewer

on page 33.

•

The serial viewer window allows you to manage individual target devices either by using

commands or scripts.

3.1.1 Local UI

The switch includes a local port on the back. This port enables you to connect a keyboard, monitor and

mouse directly to the switch and use the local UI.

You can choose any of the following keystrokes to be configured to open the local UI or to switch between

the local UI and an active session:

Print Screen

Ctrl + Ctrl

Shift + Shift

, and

Alt + Alt

. You can close the

local UI by pressing

Esc

Print Screen

To launch the local UI:

Connect your monitor, keyboard and mouse cables to the MergePoint Unity switch. For more

information, see

Connecting the Switch Hardware

on page 7.

2. Press any of the enabled keystrokes to launch the local UI.

3. If local UI authentication has been enabled, enter your username and password.

NOTE: If the switch has been added to a DSView server, then the DSView server will be accessed to

authenticate the user. If the switch has not been added to a DSView server, or if the DSView server

cannot be reached, then the switch local user database will be accessed to authenticate the user. The

default local username is Admin, and there is no password. Usernames in the local user database are

case sensitive.

Attached target devices in the local UI can be viewed and managed from two individual screens that are

selected from the side navigation bar. For less than 20 targets, the Target List-Basic screen is

recommended for navigation. For more than 20 attached target devices, the Target List-Full screen

provides additional navigation tools. At the Target List-Full screen you can navigate by entering the page
