Installation
The Dell™ 2161DS Console Switch requires that the Remote Console Switch Software be installed
prior to use. Remote Console Switch Software allows a user to view and control a server attached to
the 2161DS Console Switch system, configure and maintain the system, and prevent unauthorized
access to the 2161DS Console Switch via IP connection.
NOTE: The analog port does not require the Remote Console Switch Software for operation. The analog
port uses the On-Screen Configuration and Activity Reporting interface (OSCAR®). For more information,
see "Analog Port Operation".
The 2161DS Console Switch system uses Ethernet networking infrastructure and TCP/IP protocol
to transmit keyboard, video, and mouse information between operators and connected computers.
Although 10BaseT Ethernet may be used, Dell recommends a dedicated, switched 100BaseT
network.
CAUTION: Before performing any of the procedures listed in this section, read and follow the Safety
Precautions outlined in the Overview section of this guide.
