SMART IP ACCESS

1. Introduction

The Smart IP Access extends your KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) from any

computer or server over TCP/IP via LAN, WAN or Internet connection. Now you

can control, monitor and manage your servers from wherever you are, inside or

outside the organization. The Smart IP Access is a cost-effective hardware solution,

for secure remote KVM access & control of a computer/server from the BIOS level

- independent of the OS. It is designed to connect to a single computer or to a

KVM switch to access multiple servers, over TCP/IP communication.

2. System components

The Smart IP Access system consists of:

1 Smart IP Access (p/n 1SU51068)

3 in 1 CPU cable (p/n 5CB10477)

1 RS232 Cross cable (p/n 5CB00566)

Rack-mount kit (p/n 5AC20255)

The RS232 Cross cable connects the Smart IP Access to serial manageable network

devices such as Power Management units, Routers, etc.

RS232 Cross cable option

Smart IP Access has two RS232 RJ45 connectors. You can purchase another

RS232 Cross cable to connect a second Serial device. P/N 5CB00566

5. Client computer operating system

Windows NT4.0, 2000, XP or 2003 Server, with IE 6.0 or higher. The support of

128 bit encryption is required if a secured connection is selected.

6. Connecting the system

Connect the Target Server / KVM switch to the Smart IP Access as follows:

1. Connect one end of the 3 in 1 CPU cable to the Computer ports of the Smart IP

Access.

2. Connect the other end of the 3 in 1 CPU cable to the KVM ports of the Target

Server / KVM switch.

3. To operate the KVM switches and Servers locally, connect a keyboard, mouse

and monitor to the IP Access’s Local Console connectors.

4. Connect Smart IP Access to the network by attaching one of the LAN ports to

an Ethernet port on your Network. IP Access has two LAN interfaces – see

Initial Settings

5. Connect the power cord.

7. Initial Settings

The following sections provide instructions for setting the IP address for the Smart

IP Access unit.

8. Default IP address

Smart IP Access has two available Ethernet Adapters, LAN 1 and LAN 2:

LAN 1 - By default, LAN 1 boots with an automatically assigned IP address if a

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server exists. The MAC address

appears on a label on the underside of the IP Access box. Also on the label is the 6-

digit device number (D.N.). The default device name is the letter ‘D’ followed by

the device number

LAN 2 - boots with the default IP configuration:

IP Address - 192.168.0.155

Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0

You can use the default Smart IP Access IP address if your computer resides on the

same subnet where Smart IP Access is installed, or you can attach a Crossover

LAN connector cable to the Smart IP Access on one end, and to the Ethernet

adapter of your computer at the other end.

9. Logging into the Web interface

To complete the initial setup via the Web configuration interface:

1. Open your Web browser (Internet Explorer version 6.0 or higher)

2. Type the IP address of the Smart IP Access system - https://IP address/config

and press Enter. The login page appears, see Figure 4

Figure 4 Login page

3. Type the Administrator user name and password. By default, the user name is:

admin and the password is access (both lower case).

4. Press Enter. The Web interface appears. See Figure 5.

5. Bookmark the page for easy reference.

SSL Certificate notes

Upon first connection to Smart IP Access’s https configuration web page, 2

browser security warnings appear. Click Yes to proceed.

The first warning disappears upon first Smart IP Access client installation, once

Minicom’s root certificate is installed.

See the softcopy User Guide on the CD for more configuration details

10. Starting a remote session

At a Client computer open Internet Explorer (6.0 and above) and type the Smart IP

Access’s IP address. https://IP address. The Login box appears. Type your

username and password and press Enter. By default, the user name is: admin and

the password is access, (both lower case).

On first connection install the Minicom certificate and ActiveX control.

The screen of the Target Server connected directly to Smart IP Access, or the

currently selected server on the KVM switch appears. The Smart IP Access toolbar

also appears see Figure 6.

Figure 6 Remote session window

Calibrating mouse pointers

A Target Server may have a different mouse pointer speed to the Client computer.

Calibrating automatically discovers the mouse speed of the Target Server and

aligns the two pointers.

To perform the calibration when the Target Server Operating system is - Windows

NT4, 2000 or 98:

From the Toolbar click / Calibrate. Smart IP Access saves this alignment so

calibration is only needed once per Target Server.

If the Video Noise Level is above zero, calibration may not work. Go to Video

Adjustment and try to eliminate the noise by pressing Auto video adjust and/or

adjusting the bars in Manual video adjust, then perform the mouse calibration.

Note! If the mouse settings on the Target Server were ever changed, you must

synchronize mouse pointers manually, as explained below.

SMART IP ACCESS

Manual mice synchronization

If the mouse settings on the Target Server were ever changed, or when the

Operating system on the Target Server is, Windows XP / 2003 Server / Vista,

Linux, Novell, SCO UNIX or SUN Solaris you must synchronize the mouse

pointers manually.

To manually synchronize mouse pointers:

1. From the Toolbar click / Manual Settings. The Mouse Settings box

appears see Figure 7.

Figure 7 Mouse Settings box

2. Select the Target Server’s Operating System and click OK. Instructions and

sliders appear.

3. Follow the instructions and set any relevant sliders to the same values as set in

the Target Server’s Mouse Properties window.

Aligning the mice pointers

When accessing the Target Server, the mice may appear at a distance to each other.

To align the mouse pointers:

From the Toolbar click / Align or press Ctrl+M simultaneously. The mice

align.
