KLEv2
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our KLEv2 Series. We recommend that you read this manual
thoroughly and retain it for future reference.
Overview
KLEv2 (series) is the next generation of IP-based KVM Link Extender for remote server
management. It allows virtual management of server(s) or KVM(s) over the Internet. In
addition to support for secured access via 1024-bit PKI authentication, 256-bit SSL data
encryption, LDAP, RADIUS, and Active Directory authentication; it has virtualization of ISO
file that allowed accessing of remote drive to help manage server.
The Generation 2 of KLE provides a solid, reliable, and physical extension of keyboard,
mouse, and video to nearly unlimited distance. Video supports for both analog and digital
video through the DVI-I connector. Using two passive DVI to VGA adapters will provide
VGA connection at both the console and system ends.
KLEv2 options give user total control from the pre-boot stage such as BIOS-level CMOS
setting with USB interface, power cycling, and audio feedback. Along with the virtual
media, you can rebuild the operating system of any server that KLEv2 connecting on.
With properly plan KVM infrastructure, you can truly feel confident in your access to your
systems.

KLEv2
Operation
1. Due to the topological data flow requirement, please follow the previous chapter to
connect power, PC, monitors and peripherals. Start from the console devices, press the
power button to turn it on, and then plug the power cord/adapter to the power socket.
2. Turn on the connected computer, the image will be outputted to DVI monitor.
3. The keyboard and mouse will be detected after turning on the computer.
* Some older computers with USB interface might need to manually enable the USB option in the BIOS settings before you can use
any USB devices. If your USB interface does not work, please check the USB option in the BIOS.
* If you see Windows 95/98/SE or Mac OS and has not yet installed a USB mouse on your computer, there might be an error message
telling you that mouse is not detected and prompting you to decide whether to ignore the same message in the future, and yet you
will find there is no mouse movement to disable this message. So it is suggested that you should install your USB mouse on your
computer first before connecting to this KVM switch.
Configuring the Server
There are several aspects that have to be taken into consideration when configuring you
computer/server for the best performance:
(1) Refrain from selecting too peculiar video resolution mode and choose resolution that's within KLEv2's
standard support.
(2) Turn off special transition effects on your operating system such as fade.
(3) Adjust the server desktop background preferably plain solid colors with simple designs.
(4) Please leave enough bandwidth on the network for KLEv2 to operate.
Below is a table of the KLEv2 supported video resolution, if there is problem of abnormal
display or no video, suggest using a more standard display mode from list below.

KLEv2 Default Setting
■The factory default network settings for KLEv2 are as follows:
IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.200
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254
DNS Servers: 192.168.1.254
■The default access KLEv2 Web Browser Management Interface:
https://192.168.1.200:5908
■ The default administrator account name and password:
User name: superuser
Password: superu
Configuring KLEv2 Network Setting
■Temporary create a isolated network, not connected to the local or company network,
with KLEv2 and a computer that has a browser. Connect with the KLEv2 Remote I/O or
Ethernet Port, by having the computer in the same subnet as the KLEv2.
■Using the computer browser, login into the KLEv2 Web Browser Management Interface.
■Expand Main on the left menu --> Go to Networks to modify the IP settings in
accordance to your network or the information provided by your network administrator.
Click the Store Settings button to save the network setting. Then press the Soft Restart
to apply the settings. Once it restarts, you can add KLEv2 to your network and access to
KLEv2 will need to use the new network information.

13
KLEv2
■For example, the new KLEv2 Web Browser Management Interface will be
https://<IP_address>:<TCP Port Base + 8>
In my case, my IP Address is 192.168.1.192 and the TCP Port Base is 5920. To access my
KLEv2 Web Browser Management Interface, it is https://192.168.1.192:5928
Configuring TCP Port Base for the KLEv2
■There are two main methods of accessing the KLEv2 to have virtual presence of using
your computing resources.
(1) Separate independent program viewer. This can be downloaded from the KLEv2 Web
Management Interface -->Download --> Viewers. You have a choice of Windows
viewer or OS independent Java viewer.
(2) Java Applet viewer which uses your browser to access.
* The system that you are viewing the distant computing resource must have the latest Java. The viewer will check and initiate
update if needed.
* When login into the KLEv2 Web Management Interface, your browser may provide a website security certificate warning. Press
"Continue to this website (not recommended)" until the web certificate is properly install onto the KLEv2
* Network Administrator is responsible for safety of local network environment. Make sure you pass information on the KLEv2 to the
Network Administrator so that can make adjustment to the firewall, network configuration, and router for the KLEv2 to function
properly.

14
KLEv2
■The TCP Port Base will be relevant to both methods of viewers.
(1) Separate viewer uses the set <TCP Port Base> for access
(2) Browser Java Applet viewer uses the set <TCP Port Base + 8> for access.
■To change the TCP Port Base by login to the KLEv2 Web Management Interface -->Main
(on the left scroll down menu) -->Networks.
* To start using the new settings, Press Store Settings, then Press Soft Restart. When login into the KLEv2, please use the new network
settings.
Accessing the Remote Server
■Please select methods of accessing the KLEv2 to have virtual presence of using your
computing resources.
(1) Separate independent program viewer. This can be downloaded from the KLEv2 Web
Management Interface --> Download --> Viewers. You have a choice of Windows
viewer or OS independent Java viewer.
(2) Java Applet viewer which uses your browser to access.
Applications Viewers
■For Windows' Viewer: This viewer can be use on Windows 2000 or newer platform. First
time, please download and install the viewer.

15
KLEv2
1. Click (Viewer Link icon) to access the Windows' viewer. If insufficient rights is granted
to the viewer, User Access Control will pop up for authorization.
2. In the Connection Dialog, keyin the network information
to access KLEv2, then press Connect. If found, it will
come back and ask for KLEv2 User Authentication, key in
the User ID and Password for access.
■ For Java Viewer, this viewer can be use on any system that supports the latest version of
Java. If you continuously use the current system to access through Java, recommend the
jar file be save at a convenient location. Run or double click the jar file and it will pop up
the Connection Dialog similar to the Windows' viewer.
Java Applet Viewer
■ The Java Applet Viewer can be use on any browser that has been updated to the latest
version of Java. User of the Java Applet needs to access it through the KLEv2 Web
Management Interface.
*The port number for the browser is <TCP Port Base + 8>. So it would be 8 more than the application viewer.
Press the Viewer Applet in the Web Management. There is an added level of Java's
authorization before the KLEv2 User Authentication.
