Super Administrator Setup (continued)

Network Setup - IP Address Determination (continued)

NIC Settings

The B064-Series KVM Switch has two network interfaces. The NIC

Setting section of the Network tab allows you to assign a single IP

Address and DNS Server for both network interfaces, or to assign a

separate address for each.

Redundant NIC

If Redundant NIC is enabled (the default), both interfaces use the IP

address assigned to Network Adapter 1. Under this conﬁguration, the

B064-Series KVM Switch will switch to the second network interface

in the event there is a crash on the ﬁrst network interface.

Address and DNS Server settings for both Network Adapter 1 and

Network Adapter 2. User the Network Interface drop-down menu to

select the Network Adapter you want to conﬁgure.

IP Address and DNS Server Address

The B064-Series KVM switch supports both IPv4 and IPv6

addresses. The Network page allows you to set the IP address

manually, or to select to have it automatically assigned via DHCP

server. By default, the IP address is set to be assigned automatically

via DHCP server.

Obtain IP address automatically check box in the IPv4 or IPv6

settings section, depending on your network.

• ToassignanIPaddressyourself,checktheSet IP address manually

check box in the IPv4 or IPv6 settings section, depending on your

network. When checked, the IP address and DNS server address

ﬁelds open up, allowing you to enter in the desired settings. Once

you have entered in all the IP address and DNS server address

information, click the Save button at the bottom of the screen. Upon

logging out of the KVM (click the Logout icon in the upper-right

corner of the OSD), the KVM will reset itself and the IP address

settings you just entered will be implemented.

Note: When manually assigning a DNS Server address, it is required

that you enter the Preferred DNS server, but the Alternate DNS server

is an optional ﬁeld.

See Network section under Device Management for more information

on these settings.

2. IP Installer

For computers running Windows, an IP address can be assigned with

the IP Installer utility:

Note: In order to use the IP Installer, the IP Installer Enabled check

box in the Network page must be checked. (See Network section

under Device Management in OSD Operation for details.) By default,

the IP Installer View Only check box is checked, allowing you to view

the KVMs IP Address using the IP Installer but not change it.

1. Obtain the IP Installer ﬁle from the CD that came with the B064-

Series KVM Switch and save it to a desired location on a computer

that is on the same network as your B064-Series KVM Switch.

2. Go to the IP Installer ﬁle that you just saved and run the IPInstaller.

exe ﬁle.

3. Select the B064-Series KVM Switch in the Device List.

Note: If the list is empty, or your device doesn’t appear, click

Enumerate to refresh the Device List. If there is more than one device

in the list, use the MAC address to pick the one you want. The B064-

Series KVM Switches MAC address is located on its bottom panel.

4. From here you can choose to Obtain an IP address automatically

(DHCP), or Specify an IP address. If you choose to assign your

own address, ﬁll in the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway

ﬁelds with information appropriate to your network.

5. Click Set IP.

6. After the IP address shows up in the Device List, click Exit.

3. Browser

By default, the KVM switch is set to have its IP address assigned

automatically via DHCP server. If the KVM is connected to a network

without a DHCP server, it boots with a default IP address. On IPv4

networks, the default IP is 192.168.0.60. If the KVM is on an IPv6

network, the default IP address is determined by the KVMs MAC

address. For example, if the KVM has a MAC address of 00-10-74-13-

81-01, the IPv6 address is FE80:0:0:0:0010:74FF:FE13:8101. The

parts of the IP address that are bolded and underlined are ﬁxed.

1. Access the B064-Series KVM switch by using the default URL

mentioned above.

2. Assign a ﬁxed IP address for the KVM using the same instructions

as described in the Local Console section of this chapter.
