Figure 2-14. Cable Management Arm - Top View Installing Remote Console Switch Software To install your Remote Console Switch Software: See the Dell™ 2161DS Console Switch Remote Console Switch Software User's Guide that ships with your 2161DS Console Switch system. Adding Servers While you can configure the entire 2161DS Console Switch system through either OSCAR or the Remote Console Switch Software, Dell recommends first adding server names to OSCAR at the local analog station prior to adding or discovering the appliance in Remote Console Switch Software at the digital station. The 2161DS Console Switch system has an analog port that allows you to attach a monitor and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse to the back of the unit. Dell recommends that you first set up your servers at the analog port via OSCAR before proceeding to the Remote Console Switch Software to finish configuring your system. Proceed to "Analog Port Operation" in this user's guide for detailed instructions on OSCAR setup and configuration. Once your servers are named, you will want to go to a digital station and configure the Remote Console Switch Software. For more information, see "Installation" for an overview of the installation procedure. NOTE: Connected servers may be up to 10 meters away from the 2161DS Console Switch. Installation 27
