Configuring Basic Networking Using the OSD
This procedure requires a hardware connection already made between the KVM’s KVM management port and a local monitor, keyboard, and mouse. After the KVM and monitor are powered on, the OSD login screen appears.
The following table shows how to perform common actions described in the following procedures when working with the OSD.
