Options for Accessing the KVM RP
The KVM RP offers two options for monitor, keyboard, and mouse control. Administrators can connect a dedicated keyboard, monitor, and mouse directly to the KVM RP. Or administrators can connect the KVM RP to their local work station in order to toggle the keyboard, monitor, and mouse control between the KVM/netPlus and the local computer.
