4 Product Overview
NOTE: Dell SIP modules are supported on directly connected Avocent switches.
Operating Features
The RCS software features include target device naming, target device name
displays, sorting, and IPv4 and IPv6 network address capabilities. Appendix B:
Keyboard and Mouse lists the Explorer navigation shortcuts. Other
components also support full keyboard navigation in addition to mouse
operations.
Target Device Naming
The software requires that each switch and target device have a unique name.
To minimize the need for operator intervention, the software uses the
following procedure to generate a unique name for a target device whose
current name conflicts with another name in the database.
During background operations (such as an automated operation that adds or
modifies a name or connection), if a name conflict occurs, the conflicting
name is automatically made unique. This is done by appending a tilde (~)
followed by an optional set of digits. The digits are added in cases where
adding the tilde alone does not make the name unique. The digits start with a
value of one and are incremented until a unique name is created.
During operations, if you or another user specifies a non-unique name, a
message informs the corresponding user that a unique name is required.
Target Device Name Displays
When a switch is added, the target device names retrieved from the switch
are stored in the software database. The operator can then rename the target
device in the Explorer. The new name is stored in the database and used in
various component screens. This new target device name is not
communicated to the switch.
Since the software is a decentralized management system, you can change the
name assigned to a target device on the switch at any time without updating
the software database. Each operator can customize a particular view of the
list of target devices being managed.
Since you can associate more than one name with a single target device - one
on the switch and one in the software - the software uses the following rules
to determine which name is used:
