AdderLink IP

Control of many hosts

On its own, the AdderView Matrix

provides access to either eight (model

AVM208) or sixteen (model AVM216)

host systems. However, when linked to

other KVM switches (AdderView Matrix

or otherwise) the user(s) can easily

control up to 128 separate host systems.

Optional power control

One or more optional power switches can be

attached to either unit. These control the supply

to the host system(s) and allow the remote user to

hard reset any system that has suffered a failure.

Remote control

The AdderLink IP allows direct connection to

an Ethernet-based local network and from

there onto the wider Internet, as required.

The robust AdderLink IP security system will

also allow direct connection to the Internet.

Local control

Both the AdderLink IP and

AdderView Matrix provide

ports to allow local user

control, when required.

Welcome

Introduction

This guide is intended as a brief overview to using

the AdderLink IP and the AdderView Matrix products

together. Both of these products are supplied with

their own dedicated guides and this overview provides

clickable links to those guides (when their les are

stored in the same folder of your system).

The AdderLink IP and AdderView Matrix are both

powerful and popular products in their own rights.

However, when they are combined, the resulting

system is even greater than the sum of its parts.

Together these products equip you with full control of

multiple host computers from literally anywhere, all via

a basic internet connection.

This overview guide contains three main sections:

connect them to the AdderView Matrix.

Part 2 – Remote conguration

This must be made using a remote connection (network or dial-up modem/ISDN).

It allows ne tuning of the Part 1-local conguration items, plus the creation of

multiple user accounts and declaration of all host computers.

Conguration

You can congure the AdderLink IP and AdderView Matrix devices in any order,

however, when your local monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected to the

AdderLink IP, it is that device that you will see rst. In such cases, start with the

AdderLink IP.

AdderLink IP

AdderLink IP has a two-part initial conguration:

Part 1 – Local conguration

This must be carried out using the locally connected keyboard and monitor.

It prompts you to set up key basic details, network essentials, modem/ISDN

parameters and security key creation.

AdderView Matrix

The AdderView Matrix conguration can be carried out from the local keyboard

and monitor, connected to either the AdderLink IP or to the AdderView Matrix.

The advantage of the former is that you can gain access to either device from

the same position. Once the AdderLink IP is initially congured, you can even

congure the AdderView Matrix via a remote link.

See Overall initial conguration

The important aspects to congure are:

• Enable security

• Set admin user password

Important

Individually the AdderLink IP and AdderView

Matrix can both maintain their own separate

records of computers and users. However,

when used together, the AdderView Matrix

operates strictly as a slave to the AdderLink

IP. This means that almost all conguration

of users and computers need only take place

on the AdderLink IP. The exception to this is

the creation of a unique password for the

AdderView Matrix admin user.

You do not need to congure any users

or computers on the AdderView Matrix

unless, a local user, connected directly to

the AdderView Matrix, will need to access

computers.

The important aspects to congure

are:

• Security considerations

• Register all host computers

• Register all users and dene

which hosts computers to which

they will have access.
