6: Remote System Control This chapter describes the components of remote system control. It contains the following sections: Overview Remote Console Window Basic Remote Console Operation Optimizing Video Keyboard Functions Other Remote Console Functions Telnet/SSH Overview The Lantronix Spider and SpiderDuo devices control the target system by using a Remote Console. The Remote Console has settings that apply each time a user launches it. Other settings can be applied within the window itself. By scaling the window down in size, it is possible to have multiple Remote Console windows open, allowing interaction with multiple target systems. Remote Console Window The Remote Console window shows a real-time replica of the target system video (mimicking a monitor plugged directly into the remote computer). When the local computer window displays in the Remote Console window, mouse movements and keystrokes are transmitted to a remote computer. The title bar of the window shows the IP address of the Spider device or SpiderDuo (useful when multiple windows are open on the client system). The Remote Console window can be minimized, maximized, or scaled in either direction. There are Main viewport and scroll bars, button keys, and a toolbar which are described in the following subsections. To launch the Remote Console window, perform the following steps. 1. Click KVM Console to launch the Remote Console window. The Remote Console window can open in the foreground or in the background. If it launches in the background, click on the icon to bring the window to the front. 2. Or, launch the Remote Console by clicking the link below the preview image on the KVM Console Preview window. You can enable the Spider or SpiderDuo device to bypass the web page and take you directly to the remote system by clicking Services > Security > Authentication Limitation > Enable Direct KVM. This capability is called Direct KVM. Spider™ and SpiderDuo® KVM-over-IP Device User Guide 46
