38 About Your System
• The iKVM can also be accessed from the front of the enclosure, providing
front or rear panel KVM functionality, but not at the same time. For
enhanced security, front panel access can be disabled using the CMC’s
interface.
NOTE: Connecting a keyboard, video, and mouse to the enclosure front panel
disables video output to the iKVM back panel port. It does not interrupt iDRAC
video and console redirection.
• You can use the iKVM to access the CMC console directly, using
RACADM or via the Web-based interface. For more information, see
"Using the iKVM Module" in the CMC
User’s Guide.
Figure 1-18 shows the external features of the iKVM switch module.
