4 DSR Installer/User Guide Access the DSR via network connection No special software or drivers are required on the attached, or host, computers. Users access the DSR appliance and all attached systems via Ethernet from a PC running the DSView TM application residing on the user PC. User PCs can be located anywhere a valid network connection exists. The DSR appliance can be configured on a separate network from your data network, allowing access to your servers even if your applications network is down. Simple point and click access to any server When a user activates DSView, it will display a listing of all computers and serial devices to which the user has permission to access. When a user selects a computer from the list, the video of the selected computer is displayed in a session window. Multiple servers can be accessed by one user. Each additional computer’s video will appear in a separate program window. Create and manage user permissions with DES encrypted security An administrator describes the configuration of computers attached to the DSR using an application called DSAdmin. Once the topology is described, the administrator then establishes which computers a user has permission to access. Usernames and passwords are derived from Windows NT ® , eliminating the need for redundant user databases. Once the topology is established, the DSAuth software manages the system’s user permissioning. DSView polls the server running DSAuth for access permissions on power up and every time a switch is initiated for the most current permissions possible. A refresh is also available for immediate updates to a user’s access profile. In addition to the permissioning function, DSAuth also stores pertinent information about attached devices in a database. Room location, rack location and computer type can all be stored for quick reference. Access serial devices If an Avocent CPS810 or CPS1610 appliance is attached to the DSR unit, operators can gain access to serial devices through the DSView software. When a user connects to the network using DSView, a listing of all computers and serial devices to which the user has permission to access displays. Selecting a serial device will initiate a Telnet session.
